About the Role

Hazel Cottage School is entering an exciting phase of growth with the opening of our second site, and we're looking for an organised, enthusiastic and compassionate Administrator to join our dedicated team.

This is much more than an administration role. As one of the first people pupils, families, visitors and professionals will meet, you'll help create a warm, welcoming and professional environment where everyone feels valued and supported.

Working across our specialist SEND provision, you'll play a vital role behind the scenes, ensuring the smooth day-to-day running of the school so that our staff can focus on what matters most – helping children and young people thrive.

If you love variety, enjoy working with people and take pride in keeping things organised, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.

What You'll Be Doing

• Providing efficient, confidential and high-quality administrative support across the school.
• Acting as the first point of contact for visitors, parents, carers and professionals, delivering a friendly and professional reception service.
• Managing telephone and email enquiries and directing them appropriately.
• Maintaining accurate pupil and staff records, ensuring all documentation is secure and up to date.
• Supporting attendance, admissions and general school administration processes.
• Assisting with the organisation of meetings, events, training and school communications.
• Supporting finance and purchasing processes, including invoices and ordering supplies where required.
• Working collaboratively with colleagues to ensure the school remains organised, compliant and focused on delivering exceptional outcomes for pupils.

About You

We're looking for someone who is:

• Friendly, professional and passionate about providing excellent support and customer service.
• Highly organised, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• A confident communicator with strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Comfortable using Microsoft Office, databases and school administration systems.
• A supportive team player who builds positive relationships with pupils, families and colleagues.
• Proactive, adaptable and able to use initiative in a fast-paced environment.
• Discreet and trustworthy, with a strong understanding of confidentiality and safeguarding responsibilities.
• Reliable, enthusiastic and committed to continuous learning and development.

Experience of working in a school office would be preferred but not essential. If you bring positivity, professionalism and a genuine desire to make a difference, we'd love to hear from you.
