About the team/service
Camden Learning is partnering with Google to deliver a first of its kind education-focused AI Campus in the heart of Somers Town. Opening in Autumn 2024, the London AI Campus will inspire, inform and educate sixth form students in the field of AI. Aimed at removing barriers for underrepresented groups, an engaging and inclusive student-centred curriculum will increase AI literacy across the student body and community. This will be delivered at the educationally focused London AI Campus on Charrington Street, which will also host some primary computing (robotics) and an out-of-school-hours Opportunity Centre.
The role
We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced leader to deliver our trailblazing Google-partnered post-16 AI-focused enrichment provision in its own building at the heart of Camden.

They will also set up and lead our new Opportunity Centre and manage the refurbished Camden Learning Centre to run these provisions.
