School Administrator - All Saints CofE Primary School

All Saints C of E Primary School, Strathmore Avenue, Coventry, CV1 2AF

Contract Type: Term Time Only

Salary Range: £26,016 - £27,274 pro rata per annum to the hours and weeks worked

Administration Assistant – Grade 3 (Grade 2 may be considered depending on experience)

We are looking for an enthusiastic, friendly and organised Administration Assistant to join our team at All Saints.

This is an exciting opportunity to become part of a warm, welcoming school where children, families and staff are at the heart of everything we do. We are a close community with a strong family feel, guided by our Christian vision of love for ourselves, our family and our world.

Although this is an office-based role, at All Saints we believe that every adult is a teacher. The successful candidate will therefore be much more than an administrator. You will be an important part of school life: welcoming children and families, supporting colleagues and helping our busy school run smoothly.

We can offer you a supportive team, a varied and rewarding role and the opportunity to develop your skills and learn as part of our growing school business team. If you are enthusiastic, enjoy working with people and are willing to get stuck in, we would love to hear from you.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for someone who:

• genuinely enjoys working in a school environment and has a love of children;
• is warm, approachable and able to make children, families and visitors feel welcome;
• is enthusiastic, positive and willing to learn;
• is organised, reliable and able to work carefully and accurately;
• communicates confidently and professionally with a wide range of people;
• is willing to be flexible and help wherever needed – "that’s not my job" isn’t really how we work at All Saints!
• enjoys being part of a team and wants to contribute to the wider life of the school;
• understands the importance of confidentiality, safeguarding and professional conduct;
• shares our commitment to ensuring that every child and family feels known, valued and cared for.

Previous school administration experience would be an advantage, but attitude, potential and a willingness to learn are equally important to us. The grade offered may reflect the successful candidate's relevant skills and experience .

Our workforce data shows that men and people from minority ethnic backgrounds are under-represented, we encourage applicants from these backgrounds to apply. This does not prevent individuals with or without other protected characteristics as set out within the Equality Act 2010 from applying for this post.

Our school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be required to undertake an enhanced criminal record check via the DBS, all relevant safeguarding and pre-employment clearances, and the receipt of two satisfactory references.

Following recommendations from Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) for an additional pre employment check with effect 1 Sept 22, please note, an online search may form part of this recruitment process.
