We have high ambitions for our learners and staff and aim to deliver this through a culture of continuous development, support, kindness and understanding.

About the role

Haxby Road Primary Academy are looking to recruit a Receptionist Administrator to work in their busy school office, this is a permanent position working 22 hours per week. These hours will be as follows, Monday and Thursday 8.15am - 4.15pm, and Friday 8.15am to 3.45pm during the school term time.

Working closely with the Administrator and the School Business Partner and SENDCO to provide efficient administration, you will be responsible for a range of receptionist and clerical duties. Central to this will be to provide a welcoming and efficient first point of contact for parents and visitors to the school, whether at the front desk, on the telephone, or by email.

In addition, you will use a variety of IT systems to record school data, produce reports and generate letters and other communications. You will also assume responsibility for recording and monitoring pupil absences and reporting on this as appropriate.

The job requirements

We are looking for a highly competent and experienced Administration Assistant who is able to manage the systems and processes in our busy school effectively. As well as being a confident and capable user of various IT systems, you will also be willing to learn how to operate our various software packages to allow the smooth running of our school office.

You will be driven by providing good customer service in all that you do for the benefit of our most important people – our children. A commitment to keeping children safe and the ability to respect the values of the school are also of fundamental importance.

Working with us

Although our administrative staff work in small school-based teams, the systems used are the same across the trust, meaning help and support is never far away. We ensure full training is provided, whether it’s through courses, apprenticeships or coaching and mentoring. What is essential is the desire to learn and a commitment to providing excellent customer service at all times to school staff, parents and our pupils.

We offer generous terms and conditions of employment. All our staff have access to a comprehensive Wellbeing Programme to help you and your family stay healthy. This includes access to free private GP and nurse appointments, exercise advice and classes, plus a variety of specialist clinics as well as counselling services. We also offer significant discounts on many high street shops, online retailers and travel agents, not to mention free car parking at all our schools, an enviable pension scheme, sick pay and family friendly policies.
