The Schools Portfolio Manager will ensure the consistent and high-quality implementation of the Pharo Schools educational, operational and financial model across a specified portfolio of schools. Acting as the principal coach to School Principals, the role serves as the critical link between network strategy and school-level execution, ensuring that every school delivers an outstanding educational experience while achieving academic excellence, operational effectiveness and financial sustainability. The position is accountable for developing exceptional principals who, in turn, develop exceptional teachers, resulting in improved student achievement, strong school cultures and a sustainable network of high-performing Pharo Schools.

We are seeking an exceptional Head of Engineering & Capital Projects to lead the technical stewardship of Pharo’s growing portfolio of capital projects and physical assets across the region. This is a newly created, group-level role reporting to the Chief Operations Officer, designed to bring engineering rigour, professional construction oversight, and disciplined asset management to a diverse operation with over 15 assets (Schools, Plants, Offices) in four countries.

Pharo typically does not execute construction in-house. We engage best-in-class architects, engineers, project management consultants, and contractors, and we hold them to high standards on the Foundation’s behalf. The Head of Engineering & Capital Projects is the single accountable point on the Client side, ensuring that every project Pharo commissions is delivered on quality, on time and on budget, and that every asset Pharo owns is maintained to the standard our beneficiaries deserve.

The successful candidate will be expected to be hands on and directly working with internal stakeholders and external service providers. This is the right role for an experienced, trustworthy engineer who wants to own outcomes end-to-end rather than oversee a department from a distance and has proven their ability to deliver a greenfield construction project end-to-end.

This is an excellent opportunity for an early-career HR professional who is eager to gain hands-on experience across multiple HR functions including digital staff filing, contract management, leave administration, recruitment support, onboarding, performance management support, and employee engagement.
