Stonar is an independent, non-selective, co-educational day and boarding school for pupils aged 2 to 18, which was rated excellent by ISI in October 2018 for both pupil achievement and personal development.

We pride ourselves on our ability to nurture the learning needs of every individual in a respectful, supportive and globally-minded community. All staff are expected to proactively support the aims of the school. Stonar is situated in over 80 acres of beautiful Wiltshire countryside, yet only a 20 minute drive from the World Heritage City of Bath and within easy reach of the M4 corridor.

Due to a member of staff progressing to veterinary school, we now have an exciting opportunity available.

We are seeking an enthusiastic, flexible, and efficient Assistant Yard Manager to join our team. While we will consider strong candidates with substantial experience in a similar role, preference will be given to those holding BHS Stage 2 or an equivalent qualification.

Stonar will offer you the opportunity to gain BHS qualifications, training for BHS is available free of charge at the school.

The successful candidate must have experience of working on a professional yard and the ability to teach a wide range of stable management skills to children, including training students for BHS examinations.
