Careers with NGA
Why work at the National Governance Association?
At NGA, we believe that excellent school governance is the foundation of a fantastic education. By joining our team, you become an integral part of a dedicated, forward-thinking charity that directly influences and supports thousands of school governors, trustees, and governance professionals across England.
Here is why our staff love doing what they do, and why you will too.
We aren't just an organisation; we are a movement for educational excellence. Every piece of advice we give, every training session we deliver, and every campaign we run helps school leaders make better decisions for children and young people. Working here means knowing your daily efforts contribute to a brighter future for the next generation.
We practice what we preach. Just as we advocate for good governance and well-being in schools, we prioritise it within our own organisation.
We are a close-knit, passionate team that values diverse perspectives, open communication, and mutual respect.
NGA is deeply committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion, ensuring every voice is heard and valued.
Professional growth and development

- Flexible working to help you balance your personal and professional commitments.
- Generous holiday allowance to ensure you can rest and recharge.
