Stevenage Education Support Centre has been rated Outstanding by Ofsted in May 2024. We are a provider of educational programmes to support students who are at risk of permanent exclusion or who have been permanently excluded from their mainstream school. The Centre’s vision is to inspire and enable all students to achieve their full potential.

An exciting opportunity has arisen within our Educational Support Centre (ESC). We are currently seeking a motivated and organised individual to join our enthusiastic and friendly team, which is dedicated to fostering a supportive environment for our students.

The successful candidate will bring experience of administration within a busy office setting. We value individuals who are self-motivated, well-organised, and demonstrate a strong ability to work collaboratively as part of a team. Attention to detail is paramount, alongside a sound understanding of IT, particularly Microsoft Office applications. While knowledge of SIMS/Bromcom would be advantageous, we are pleased to offer comprehensive training for those who may be unfamiliar with these systems.

The nature of our work often requires the ability to perform under pressure, particularly during peak times in the school year. Therefore, resilience and a sense of humour are important traits we seek in our candidates. You will be interacting with students, parents, and a range of professionals, which necessitates excellent communication skills.


In this role, the ability to work on your own initiative, whilst embodying a confident, empathetic, and positive character, will be essential. You will find yourself amid a team of inspirational educators who put children at the heart of everything they do, ensuring a fulfilling and impactful work environment.

Our school is firmly committed to safeguarding the children and young people in our care. As such, all post holders will be required to undergo a satisfactory Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check prior to commencement of role.


Should you require any further information, or if you wish to arrange a visit to the Centre, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Closing date for applications is 5pm on Sunday 13th October 2024

  • Shortlisted candidates will be contacted by 5pm on Wednesday 16th October 2024

  • Interviews will be held on Wednesday 23rd October 2024

  • Employment start date will be as soon as possible thereafter, subject to all pre-employment checks being satisfactorily completed.

Early applications are encouraged, as if we identify the right candidate, the advert may close early.
