ADMISSIONS OFFICER/ADMINISTRATOR

We are looking to appoint a proactive and organised Admissions Officer to deal with all of the Year 7, in-year and casual admissions throughout the school year. 

To work effectively in this key role, the successful candidate will have excellent communication and organisation skills and be a highly competent user of MS Office software.  Applicants will be intelligent, versatile and resourceful, and be able to work both independently and as part of a team and thrive in a busy, sometimes unpredictable, school environment. 

This post is for 37 hours per week, 39 weeks per year (term time plus staff development days). However, we would consider a part-time post of 22.5 hours per week.  The post is offered on Kent Range 5 (£18,704 – £20,121) depending on qualifications and experience.

We are a happy team, proud of our school and relentless in our efforts to give students, staff and parents the very best.  If you feel you can bring something extra to our organisation then we want to hear from you!
