What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking to recruit an exceptional, back office administrator, perhaps looking to broaden or redirect their skillset by working closely with and supporting the School’s Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Team in a wide range of activities. This will include providing administrative support for the SEND team, acting as the first point of contact for the team, booking meetings and visits from other professionals and organising the completion and distribution of SEND documentation.
You must be a team player, be able to build relationships with all staff but maintain strictest confidence, be dynamic and flexible and want to seek out better ways of working. This range of activity has considerable breadth, so you should have demonstrable experience in some of the key areas and be willing to learn new skills in others. You will work closely with subject matter experts, but need to be able to thrive in getting on with tasks set and will be given the freedom to set up and develop your own systems where appropriate.
You will be highly organised, utterly reliable and able to prioritise conflicting workloads. You must possess very good ICT skills, be familiar with databases and different software packages, have an excellent telephone manner and be able to communicate effectively and efficiently both verbally and in writing.
Most importantly, you must have a positive approach, working in schools is hugely rewarding but can also be challenging, with no two days the same. We look forward to meeting you.
What the school offers its staff
We offer a range of benefits, including:
- Full access to Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS)
- Training and development opportunities (CPD)
- Access to Cycle to Work scheme
- Access to an employee benefit scheme, which offers discounts across a range of products and services from health and wellbeing to leisure and retail.
- Access to our Employee Assistance Programme with 24/7 helpline for free and confidential advice
You will find us to the north of the historic city of York and we have an excellent learning environment and superb facilities.
