At Outcomes First Group, we believe in creating a better work-life balance while making a meaningful impact. We are currently seeking a dedicated Family Liaison Officer and Attendance Lead to join our team at Underley Garden School, located in Kirkby Lonsdale (LA6 2DZ), serving the Kearstwick and Carnforth areas. This is a permanent, term-time-only position offering a salary of £32,500 per annum (not pro rata), plus a travel allowance. The working hours are 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday, from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with a scheduled start in September 2026.

Your day-to-day responsibilities will naturally involve partnering with parents and carers to address attendance barriers, monitoring attendance data, implementing supportive strategies, and fostering positive relationships between the school community and families.
To be successful in this role, you should possess strong interpersonal and communication skills, with a compassionate approach to supporting families and young people. While specific requirements are guided by the needs of our students, candidates should be comfortable working collaboratively within an educational setting, managing attendance records, and acting as a dependable point of contact for household-to-school communications.

- A competitive salary of £32,500 per annum (not pro rata)
- Included travel allowance
- Term-time-only contract allowing for an improved work-life balance
