How to Apply
How to Apply
To apply, please email your CV and a cover letter in Word format , clearly addressing the above requirements and response to the below questions
Applications that do not meet these criteria may not be considered.
What interests you most about this Account Manager role at HFL, and why do you want to work with schools and trusts?
What do you see as the top three IT challenges schools and MATs are facing right now, and how would you influence and support in your role as an Account Manager?
How would you prioritise if a school had lots of needs but very little money?
Tell us about a time you helped a customer or stakeholder develop a longer-term IT strategy or plan. What actions did you take? what was the outcome and learnings?
The role
This is more than an account management role. It’s an opportunity to meaningfully shape the future of education by helping schools get the very best from their IT—through support, broadband services, consultancy and smart, sustainable technology solutions
Make a difference where it truly matters
Are you driven by purpose? Motivated by improving outcomes for children and young people? Energised by supporting schools to make wise, cost-effective decisions—especially when budgets are tight?
If so, this is not a typical sales role. It’s a partnership role where integrity, empathy and
long-term impact matter just as much as commercial success.
We’re looking for someone who can demonstrate experience in account management—ideally within an MSP, IT services, or education setting—and who takes pride in delivering value that genuinely supports schools, academies and trusts.
Why this role matters
Technology has the power to transform teaching, learning and operational efficiency. But it must be accessible, sustainable and aligned with real educational needs.
As an Account Manager in HFL’s Technology in Schools team, you will guide school and trust leaders through an increasingly complex digital landscape. You will help them stretch limited budgets, prioritise wisely and choose solutions that truly support their communities.
This role is centred on partnership—not volume. We focus on doing what is right for schools and what delivers the best long-term outcomes for children.
What you’ll do
Build trusted, long-term relationships with school and trust
Develop a deep understanding of their needs and challenges and help shape sustainable IT strategies.
Match requirements with the best-value solutions, ensuring every pound works hard for children and young people.
Coordinate with internal specialists to design high-quality, tailored
Manage renewals, contracts and opportunities professionally and
Advocate for customers internally to support continuous
Maintain accurate records within ConnectWise and use Quosal to produce clear, professional proposals.
What drives you
A commitment to improving outcomes in the education
A desire to help schools thrive through thoughtful, consultative support—not transactional selling.
Curiosity, courage and a proactive, problem-solving
A love of building genuine, meaningful
Pride in identifying smart, affordable and sustainable technology
What you’ll bring
Proven experience in account management, ideally within MSP IT services or the education sector.
A passion for exceptional customer service and collaborative, consultative
Excellent communication skills, with confidence when guiding senior
Resilience, adaptability and enthusiasm for learning new
Experience with IT systems and platforms, and selling IT support contracts (e.g., ConnectWise, Quosal, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace for Education, networking, broadband, cloud backup, servers, end-user devices, RMM/MDM, cybersecurity, AV and related solutions).
A proactive, organised approach to work
A full UK driving license and access to a vehicle with business insurance
Why join HFL Education?
We are a not-for-profit organisation with a clear moral purpose: to improve education for every child. You’ll be part of a team that works with integrity, cares deeply about its impact, and is trusted by thousands of schools.
If you want your work to mean more—and you're ready to bring your expertise to a mission-driven team—we’d love to hear from you.
Our ‘working from anywhere’ approach provides colleagues the opportunity to work flexibly in line with their role requirements. This consists of working on-site across various schools and settings, remote working and, if desired, up to 2 days per week in our Head Office in Stevenage, Hertfordshire. The ability to reach different locations by car will be essential for this role. If you drive, then a full driving licence and appropriate car insurance will be required. As there is a permanent home working element to this role, you will need to ensure you are equipped for home working.
Benefits: a generous employer pension contribution, 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays (rising to 31 days after five-years) or the equivalent paid for Term Time employees, family- friendly policies, hybrid working, paid mileage, a cycle to work scheme, onsite charging points for electric vehicles, access to mental health and wellbeing support, company performance bonus, professional development opportunities, benefit schemes for discounts and cashback offers, and more.

We are committed towards becoming an anti-racist organisation, and our recruitment statement is set out below in support of this.
HFL is committed to being an equal opportunities employer. We insist on the equal treatment of all current and prospective colleagues and will never condone discrimination on the basis of age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity, race or ethnicity, religion or belief, gender identity, or marriage and civil partnership.
HFL is also equally committed to becoming an anti-racist organisation and we encourage you to view our Anti-racist position statement which gives clarity on our anti-racist stance. In our relentless efforts to be an anti-racist organisation, we recognise the negative impacts of under representation and lack of diversity in our organisation, our education system and in all aspects of our society. Therefore, for recruitment into any HFL post, where we have 2 or more candidates of equal merit, candidates with protected characteristics will be given advantage over candidates without such characteristics. This is sometimes referred to as a ‘tie-breaker’ and is referred to as ‘positive action’ in the Equality Act 2010.
To help us meet our high standards and aspirations of a fully diverse and inclusive workplace, we strongly encourage suitably qualified applicants from all backgrounds to apply and to join us.
Please note that if you are invited to interview, we will expect you to be prepared to discuss unconscious bias with us; we find these conversations more than any others give us all a good idea of what working together will be like.

We are growing quickly from a prototype business to a scaling SME, and the next few years will be critical to our success and delivering on our ambitious goals. Valo is targeting airliner-level safety certification in 2028 ahead of entering service with our airline and operator customers. What to Expect As a Platform Engineer, you will join a team dedicated to building and operating the digital foundations that underpin our aircraft, engineering platforms, and business systems. A typical day could range from designing and automating cloud infrastructure in Azure, to improving the reliability and resilience of our hybrid environment, to enhancing our security posture through vulnerability mitigation and compliance activities. You may be developing infrastructure-as-code in Terraform, performing disaster recovery testing, working with Active Directory and Hyper-V teams, or collaborating with engineering functions to support their compute and platform needs. Your ability to move fast, solve complex systems challenges, and continuously improve infrastructure reliability will be crucial to the impact you make in this role. What You'll Do Take ownership of the security posture, resilience, and reliability of our platforms, including vulnerability mitigation, configuration hardening, and monitoring. Maintain and modernise our hybrid infrastructure spanning Azure cloud services, on-premise Hyper-V servers, and Microsoft Active Directory. Manage and regularly test our backup, disaster recovery (DR), and business continuity (BCP) processes. Design, automate, and operate cloud services across Azure (and future AWS workloads) using Terraform, Azure DevOps, and scripting languages. Develop observability and monitoring standards using tools such as DataDog, Grafana, and Prometheus. Support container-based workloads through Azure Container Apps, AKS, and related services. Ensure operational excellence and continuous improvement aligned with frameworks such as ISO 27001. Partner with engineering, security, and cross-functional teams to build scalable, reliable, secure systems. Contribute to the development of a modern, multi-cloud, hybrid platform strategy. What You'll Bring Strong experience with Azure cloud services and infrastructure management, including Virtual Machines, VM Scale Sets, Container Apps/Instances, AKS, Azure Storage, and Azure Databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, MSSQL). Experience administering Hyper-V, Linux, and Microsoft Active Directory environments. Solid grounding in observability tools (DataDog / Grafana / Prometheus). Hands-on experience with Terraform, Azure DevOps, and scripting (PowerShell, Python, Bash). Proven experience in vulnerability mitigation, security best practices, and ISO 27001 compliance. Experience with backup, recovery, and DR/BCP testing. Track record of automating, scaling, and supporting production platforms. A mindset centred on automation, resilience, and continuous improvement. Desired Experience with Azure High Performance Compute (HPC) or Slurm workload scheduling.

Our Mission At Vertical Aerospace, we are pioneering the way for electric aviation. The Valo, our eVTOL (electric, vertical, take-off and landing), 'zero emissions' aircraft will set a new safety standard for how we will navigate the sky.
