London Design and Engineering UTC is a high performing, ambitious organisation , and we are looking to build on our successes to form a multi academy trust, supporting other schools . In recent years, student numbers have grown rapidly to above 900 across years 9 to 13, apprentices and adult courses. We pride ourselves on the magnitude and reach of our employer engagements, which support the development of creative, professional and entrepreneurial mindsets in our learners. Underpinning this is a dynamic finance function that supports budgetary discipline, forecasting and careful cashflow management to ensure we deliver value for money each year, and secure the investment to realise our potential. In 2019 we moved from portacabins into a purpose-built school, and in September 2025 we opened our new T Level building, securing grants from DfE for the build and to provide industry-standard equipment. The annual accounts for August 2025 were completed in November, with a clean bill of health from the auditors. Our internal auditors have also provided their highest annual opinion of "strong". We are now looking to move our finances to the next stage with the appointment of a Head of Finance. This is a new post that will lead the finance operations of London Design and Engineering UTC, reporting to the Chief Financial and Operating Officer (CFOO). The primary focus of the postholder will be to build on this excellent base to support the growth of LDE in a fast-paced environment, t
