Junior Office Assistant job summary
We are looking to appoint a Junior Office Assistant to join our current admin team to support in the day to day tasks of our busy school office. Previous experience of working in an office is desirable but not essential as training will be given.
The school recently joined Ivy Learning Trust, a highly successful multi-academy trust, and this is a great time to join Round Diamond.
The right candidate should have a positive and pro-active attitude, with the ability to work well under pressure and prioritise tasks effectively. Other qualities we would like to see are good communication skills, both written and verbal, a good team player with a sense of humour and the ability to be flexible. You should also have good organisational skills, have a willingness to learn and adapt to new technologies and procedures with an attention to detail.
This is a unique opportunity, as this role has the potential to develop in time as the successful candidate gains experience in all admin tasks across the school office.
This post may be fixed term initially, leading to a permanent contract.
Working hours are 8.30am to 4.30pm Monday to Friday, term time only (pro-rata salary).
Pay grade: H2 (£10.79 per hour equivalent).
If you would like to visit the school, please contact Angela Jones on 01438 219410, or if you would like to have an informal discussion about the post, you are welcome to call Zoë Phillips, Executive Headteacher.
Candidates are encouraged to submit an application as soon as possible, as interviews may be arranged as applications are received.
