Nick Osborne is the Chief Executive Officer of Maritime Academy Trust, a multi academy trust focused on giving every child an excellent start in life. With over 25 years in education leadership, Nick founded Maritime in 2016 and has helped grow it into a values-led trust known for its creativity, collaboration and commitment to inclusion. He also serves as Chair of Trustees at Woodland Academy Trust and is a founding trustee of Maritime’s children’s charity, reflecting his deep commitment to improving life chances for young people beyond the classroom.
Nick is a passionate advocate for equity in education and is never shy of asking the awkward-but-important questions. Known for his approachable leadership style and dry sense of humour, he somehow balances strategic vision with the day-to-day demands of being a parent to three teenagers, which means he’s no stranger to negotiations, eye-rolls or mysteriously empty fridges.
