Batley Multi Academy Trust’s sole purpose is to provide a great education for Primary and Secondary learners throughout a local family of schools. The Trust is passionately committed to the communities of Batley, Birstall, Dewsbury and our surrounding areas, serving our local learners and their families in order to secure excellent educational outcomes, partnered with high aspirations. Batley Multi Academy Trust currently comprises Batley Girls’ High School; Batley Grammar School; Field Lane Junior, Infant and Nursery School; Healey Junior, Infant and Nursery School; Hyrstmount Junior School; Manorfield Infant and Nursery School; Purlwell Infant and Nursery School and Upper Batley High School. We provide high quality education for all our young people regardless of their background or starting point. Collaboration across our Trust family of schools enables us to share expertise, knowledge and best practice to ensure academic and pastoral excellence, with all schools embracing the same overall ethos and values, whilst maintaining their own unique characters.

This is a hands-on, varied, and fast-paced generalist HR role, ideal for someone with experience in a similar HR Administrator position who is ready to take on a new challenge.

• Manage a wide range of HR administrative tasks with accuracy, confidentiality, and attention to detail.

• Respond efficiently to queries and provide excellent support to all colleagues and stakeholders.

• Help maintain and improve HR systems and processes.

• Contribute to Trust-wide projects and initiatives that enhance our employee experience.

You’ll thrive in this role if you enjoy working in a dynamic environment where no two days are the same. Strong organisation and prioritisation skills are essential, as is the ability to build effective relationships at all levels.

We are looking for someone who:

• Has previous experience in a busy HR administrative role.

• Communicates clearly and confidently with a wide range of stakeholders.

• Is comfortable using HR systems and digital tools (experience with Google Drive is an advantage).

• Brings a flexible, can-do attitude to their work.
