Risky Business - Manchester
Thursday 19th March 2026
Registration & light breakfast from 8am.
Seminar from 9am-12 noon
Risky Business is coming to Manchester - Hosted by Hays, this event is designed to bring together Operations Directors, SBLs and SBL Consultants in a relaxed and strategic session, packed with ideas, insights and a little creative thinking on turning risk registers into action.
Uncertainty is the new normal in school leadership—budgets stretched, compliance growing, pupil needs evolving…But what if we flipped the script? What if risk became something we lead with confidence, not just manage with caution?
This free of charge, intimate roundtable of school business leader consultants and practitioners provides direct input to SBLs from the maintained and academy sector, with the opportunity of Q&A to deepen practical takeaways. We look forward to welcoming an experienced panel of experts to lead the discussions throughout the morning. In addition, each delegate will receive a Risk Register Template to tailor for their school's use.
More booking details to follow.
