Job description

About the School-Charterhouse Square

Charterhouse Square is a non-selective, co-educational independent school based in the City of London for students aged 3-11 years. The school has excellent transport links, with the Elizabeth line, Farringdon mainline and Barbican tube all within a 5-minute walk. With a friendly and unpretentious approach, Charterhouse Square School offers education from Nursery and Early Years through to Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2. At Charterhouse Square School we believe a happy and stimulating learning environment is fundamental to academic success. Students achieve exceptional academic results at 11+ from a broad and balanced curriculum, with a strong emphasis on numeracy and literacy but with ample time also dedicated to physical education and the arts.

About the Role

As our Data & Compliance Administrator, you will play a vital role in supporting the smooth and safe operation of the school. You will help ensure compliance with regulatory, health and safety, and data protection requirements, contributing to a secure and well-managed learning environment for pupils and staff.
