• Job description

  At Arbor, we’re on a mission to transform the way schools work for the better. 
  
  Central to this mission is equipping Schools with the technology and support to address any challenges they may face, so expanding our product suite and enhancing our customer offering has become an essential priority.
  
  One of these many products is SAMpeople, a cloud based software platform for schools to give them a one-stop shop for their people management.
  
  SAMpeople are Education people specialists; we have a team of leaders who have all worked in education for many years and understand the business challenges that schools and MATs have to deal with day in and day out. 
  
  At the heart of our brand is a recognition that the challenges schools face today aren’t just about efficiency, outputs and productivity - but about creating happier working lives for the people who drive education everyday: the staff. We want to make schools more joyful places to work, as well as learn.
