Can you manage an office as well as being a welcoming and helpful first point of contact for parents and visitors?

Ramsgate Holy Trinity C.E. is a small but busy Primary School on the border between Ramsgate and Broadstairs. We pride ourselves on being a caring, friendly and highly successful school with a 'family' feel.

A range of skills will be required for this role - you must be calm, positive, welcoming, firm, patient and incisive. You must be able to see the bigger picture and have an eye for detail. 

You will be a public face of the school for parents and visitors, as well as managing the effective and efficient running of a school office; which at any one time means managing the school's administrative software, putting a plaster on a child's grazed knee, helping a worried parent, arranging a school trip, sending out a letter, booking a supply teacher - often all at the same time!

In short, you will be an important part of the team that ensures the school continues to operate smoothly. You will probably have a background in school or education office management - but could just as well have transferable skills from the charity or business sectors. The high Kent Range salary (KR 7 £23,033 - £26,075 pro rata) reflects the importance of the role.

The post is permanent, full-time, term time only, Inset days plus an additional week in the holidays (40 weeks per year plus annual leave entitlement), Monday to Friday - hours to be 8.00am to 4:30pm (37 hours a week).

The ideal candidate will have Level 4 NVQ/degree/diploma qualifications. However, evidence of applicant's relevant experience will be taken into consideration.

This role may also suit somebody who is looking in the next few years to be a School Business Manager, and for the right candidate the school would be willing to support the successful candidate in gaining the SBM qualification.

A visit to the school is strongly encouraged. Please contact Mrs Couch in our office to arrange a date and time.

Information about the school

Our church school status means we have a strong Christian ethos, which enriches both our collective worship and school values of Faith, Hope and Love.
