2 weeks ago


Taunton, United Kingdom Taunton School Full time

We have an exciting opportunity for an experienced and talented individual to join us in the role of Head of International Recruitment.

Being personable, approachable, sociable, confident, articulate, friendly and inquisitive are all essential characteristics for this role, as are being flexible, resilient and having an eye for detail.

It is absolutely not essential to have worked in a school environment before; we genuinely welcome applicants from a wide variety of backgrounds who are ambitious and are keen to take on a role in which they can develop, challenge themselves and make valuable contributions to the School.

The Head of International Recruitment will be required to work across international markets and travel within the UK and overseas for key recruitment events, demonstrating competent networking skills and an ability to develop strong relationships. Experience of the international market/international travel would be a significant strength for any applicant, as would prior management experience of staff.

This is an extremely competitive market for independent education therefore the Head of International Recruitment will be required to combine essential focus on day-to-day tasks with strategic thinking on how to recruit international pupils, and support transition through the key stages of the school and maintain our position as the pre-eminent school in this area.

We aspire to deliver exceptional every day, whilst creating a welcoming and supportive environment where individuals can thrive and be celebrated. Our three cornerstone values are Humility, Engagement and Kindness. If this sounds like a cultural fit for you, and you meet the job requirements, we would love to hear from you.

**More Information & How to Apply**

The post is permanent, full time and all year round.

**Equal Opportunities**

**Safeguarding**
Taunton School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. If you are shortlisted for interview the HR team may carry out an online search via Google to check presence and activity, as part of the School’s due diligence.

Taunton School is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and subsequent amendments. You are not entitled to withhold information about convictions which would otherwise be considered as ‘spent’. All applicants must therefore declare all previous convictions and cautions, including those that would normally be considered "spent", except those that are classed as protected offences.

It is a condition of employment that the employee should not have been convicted of a criminal offence against children, nor have been dismissed from or resigned from a previous employer for misconduct of a similar nature.
