What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking to appoint an experienced administrator on a full-time basis (term-time plus 1 week) to oversee our examinations office and examination processes, provide administrative support, including staff cover and data processing, and undertake the role of Clerk to Governors, supporting our governing body. The successful candidate would be someone with excellent communication and interpersonal skills, and with a keen eye for detail and accuracy, to take the lead in managing internal and external examinations at the school (potentially to include supporting the 11+ process).
Applicants would need to be well-organised, calm and able to work on their own initiative and be expected to work flexibly, pro-actively and independently as well as part of a team.

- Be well organised.
- Be a confident user of ICT.
- Understand the need for integrity and discretion in dealing with student and staff matters.
- Be committed, as we are, to a policy of equal opportunities, mutual respect between staff and students and a determination to strive for, recognise and celebrate success.
