Academy Administrator-CEIAG

Our mission is to ‘inspire learners and change lives’ – and that includes our staff. We want to empower our teams, so pupils are ready to be kind, confident and impactful world citizens.

Flexible working or the undertaking of an Apprenticeship could also be considered. Please make your preferences clear in your supporting statement. Salary will be subject to negotiation at the point of appointment.

We are looking to appoint someone with the following skills

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, strong organisational and administrative skills

  • Willingness and motivation to develop own skills, possess a pro-active outlook

  • Awareness of sensitive information and the need for confidentiality

  • An enthusiastic, highly committed individual with the ability to be flexible (will be required to support occasional evening events)

  • Commitment to working as a member of a team, and shows initiative to work independently

  • Ability to adapt to changing, and sometimes, challenging environment

  • Commitment to high professional and personal standards
