A well-qualified, ambitious and dynamic School Staff Instructor (SSI) is required to support the Combined Cadet Force (CCF) at King’s Bruton. The SSI, under the direction of the Contingent Commander is integral to the successful running of the CCF. As SSI, you will have responsibility for training cadets, supporting field training and camps, overseeing the CCF administration, and will be responsible for the security of the buildings and equipment.
The Combined Cadet Force at King’s School, Bruton is one of the oldest CCFs in the country and celebrated its centenary in 2010. Consisting of both the Army and Navy sections, the CCF remains very popular, with strong uptake across the year groups. The CCF programme helps to encourage those pupils with an interest in the services, with an increasing number of Old Brutonians joining the armed forces. Recently, this included an Old Brutonian who received the Sword of Honour from King Charles III at Sandhurst in April 2023.
This is an excellent opportunity to join a thriving CCF contingent, and to support an exciting programme of training and events for cadets. The role would suit an individual with strong military experience and the relevant cadet qualifications. The successful candidate will need to have strong organisational skills, excellent communication skills, and the ability to work closely with colleagues across all areas of the school.
Both full and part-time positions will be considered for the right candidate.
