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.

Our ‘working from anywhere’ approach provides colleagues the opportunity to work flexibly in line with their role requirements.

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.

Accountable to the UKIC Infosec Director, this is one of the most high-profile technical leadership roles in government, shaping the strategic direction of information security to protect the UK against the most capable and persistent adversaries. The successful candidate will ensure operational resilience and secure innovation in support of national intelligence objectives, delivering results in a highly complex and rapidly evolving environment. As CISO, you will work with colleagues to set and implement the organisation's cyber and information security strategy, striking the right balance between capability, acceptable risk and technological progress. You will integrate security governance into a complex set of cross agency organisational decision-making, forums ensuring that information risks are managed effectively and proportionately, and that security is embedded at every level. This includes advising executive boards and senior leaders on the potential implications of major programmes, and guiding the organisations in safely embracing innovation and digital transformation. You will be responsible for designing and leading the UKIC's end-to-end risk management framework. This includes defining and tracking cybersecurity KPIs, producing regular reports for senior stakeholders, conducting organisation-wide risk assessments and overseeing vulnerability management to ensure compliance with relevant frameworks. You will be responsible for designing incident response and business continuity strategies and ensuring they are implemented by business areas. Your leadership will be central to developing sustainable security budgets and resourcing strategies that ensure capabilities remain strong in the face of emerging threats. This role demands exceptional communication skills and the ability to influence at the highest levels of government.

You will draw on significant experience delivering robust security strategies in complex organisations and demonstrate deep knowledge of cyber threat landscapes, risk management practices and modern security technologies. International relationships are a critical element of this role, so familiarity working with key allied governments would be valuable. You should bring expertise in securing cloud environments and emerging technologies within digital transformation programmes, alongside a strong understanding of regulatory compliance frameworks such as NIST, ISO 27001, GDPR and GovS 007. Professional certifications such as CISSP, CISM or CCISO are highly desirable. A proven track record in embedding a positive security culture, mentoring high-performing teams and managing supplier security will be critical to your success. This is a unique opportunity to take on one of the most influential cyber security leadership roles in the UK. Protecting the nation's intelligence capabilities requires vision, strategic acumen and operational excellence. If you are ready to take on this challenge, and have the skills, integrity and commitment to safeguard national security, we invite you to join us in delivering a secure future for UK intelligence. The role can be based in Cheltenham, Manchester or London, with a regular presence required in those locations. The ability to undertake occasional international travel is desirable. Key Responsibilities Develop, maintain and articulate a clear understanding of the cyber and information security risks inherent across the whole organisation in order to provide assurance to the UKIC Group Senior information risk owner (SIRO). Create and implement information security strategy which supports the organisation in determining the right balance between the organisation's cyber and information security capabilities, acceptable level of risk and speed of technology progress. Ensure an effective cyber and information security governance framework that is integrated with overall organisational governance. Define and track cybersecurity KPIs, producing regular executive and board level reports on security posture. Enable the organisation to innovate safely by advising senior leadership on the potential risks and implications of major decisions that impact information security. Oversee the creation and implementation of relevant policies and standards which ensure effective information risk management. Identify and deliver opportunities for improvement of the security operations function to ensure timely detection and response to security incidents. Lead and mentor high performing information security professionals, fostering a culture of professional development. Play a leading role in multiple Technical and programme boards.
