You will ideally have: A relevant qualification in nutrition, food science, dietetics, public health nutrition or a related subject. A strong understanding of balanced diets, child nutrition, hydration and sports nutrition. The confidence to deliver workshops, presentations and pupil-facing activities. The ability to explain nutrition in a simple, positive and age-appropriate way. A creative approach to food education and pupil engagement. Strong communication skills with pupils, parents, staff and school stakeholders. A collaborative approach and the ability to work closely with chefs and catering teams.

This is a rare opportunity to shape a dedicated nutrition role across a leading family of independent schools. You will have the chance to make a visible difference to pupils at every stage of their education, from early years through to sixth form. You will support food education, wellbeing, performance and confidence, while working with talented catering and school teams who are committed to delivering an excellent pupil experience.
