London, United Kingdom CATS Global Schools Full time

**ABOUT GUIILDHOUSE SCHOOL**
Guildhouse School is a co-educational independent day and boarding school serving international students aged 15+ located in Bloomsbury Square at the heart of London. Guildhouse School specialises in preparing students for pre-university exams, including I/GCSEs, A Levels and the University Foundation Programme (UFP). There are approximately two hundred and fifty students on roll, class size average is nine, and students take part in an extensive range of extra-curricular activities including leadership awards and national/international competitions. Approximately half of the Guildhouse School’s students live in our boarding accommodation. Guildhouse School is a member of the Independent Schools Association (ISA) and inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI.)

**OVERVIEW OF THE JOB**
Guildhouse School seeks a Boarding Concierge to work in its principal boarding facility (“Premier House”) in central London overnight. Premier House has about 120 international students, typically aged 15-19, accommodated in a large building near Bloomsbury Square. The great majority have English as an additional language; some speak English fluently, others less so.

The Boarding Concierge will work within the team of about 10 boarding staff assisting with the personal, moral, spiritual and intellectual development of each student in Premier House. They must model the high personal and academic standards of responsible adults that students respect and have the personality to contribute to a secure, stable and caring environment. They should be capable of working through the night, ensuring that students are cared for in case of emergencies and that the building is secure. They will be responsible for holding the duty phone over night and dealing with after hours enquiries, deliveries and collections.

The post of Boarding Concierge at Guildhouse School is unlike posts in other schools. Our students are older, and that brings both managerial challenges and professional opportunities. All boarding staff have a responsibility for student welfare and behaviour. They also look after the fabric of the building, making sure it is well cared for and maintained.

You will be required to work 42.5 hours per week working 9-hour shifts (10pm - 7am) over a two-week rota. The majority of shifts are required to be carried out over the weekend when students have extended curfews and a greater level of staffing is required.

**MAIN RESPONSIBILITIES**
The duties specified are not intended to represent an exhaustive list and will vary where necessary to suit the skill set of the post holder and the needs of Guildhouse School. Duties will include residential supervision overnight, checking security and maintenance of the building. A full job description may also be shared upon request.

The role of the Boarding Concierge is to work with Assistant Head: Boarding and the Boarding Team.

Responsibilities include the following:
1. Aiding the well-being, safety, discipline, and pastoral care of students through the night.
2. Ensuring that out of hours deliveries and collections are facilitated.
3. Helping supervise the day-to-day routines of normal boarding school life overnight.
4. Assisting in the academic life of the School during the School Day and being involved in activities.
5. Maintaining confidentiality and other professional standards of the education sector, such as the implications of the National Minimum Standards for Boarding.
6. Completing records of progress, welfare, problems, achievements, conduct and other reports as required.
7. Responding to circumstances of individual boarders, including those from different cultural backgrounds or with specific health needs.
8. Knowing and treating each student as an individual and encouraging self-discipline and a sense of responsibility.
9. Supporting Induction Programmes to ensure that the settling in process is a happy one, equipping students with essential initial information and resolving any problems as soon as possible.
10. Supporting, helping run, and enthusing students to participate in the Guildhouse School extra-curricular programme.
11. Helping with any emergency that may arise, such as fire alarms, and to accompany students to occasional medical appointments.
12. Attending House meetings, staff and School functions as required.
13. Any other reasonable request of the Headteacher.
