London, United Kingdom EMANUEL SCHOOL Full time

**Salary**: Competitive salary scale, depending on skills and experience

**Contract**: Permanent

**Hours**: Full time

**The role**

Emanuel School is looking for an experienced and organised administrator to play a key role providing PA support to the Bursar.

You will provide a high standard of administrative and management support to the Bursar, managing their diary, appointments and travel arrangements, as well as preparing routine correspondence, producing agendas and taking minutes at key meetings (including Governors’ finance and buildings meetings). You will also be expected to provide a high standard of administrative support to other senior school staff, including the Acting Bursar/Head of Finance.

In addition to your PA responsibilities, you will line manage the Resources Officer and Reception staff, providing cover during absences and overseeing the appraisal, induction and probation processes.

**About you**

Along with previous senior PA support experience, you will also need experience of minuting formal meetings, as well as experience of using efficient and effective organisation and management systems.

Excellent interpersonal, communication and organisational skills will also be essential, in addition to a strong attention to detail and swift typing skills.

**Working at Emanuel**

There is always a buzz at Emanuel. Colleagues enjoy their work and, like the pupils, are ambitious for the school. With a weekly staff briefing, half termly staff meetings, termly consultative group meetings and a common room committee, all of us are engaged in a lively ongoing dialogue about the school’s aims and aspirations.

Everyone works hard here, and anyone joining us should expect to do the same and share our commitment to the highest standards. At the same time our ethos remains unpretentious, kindly and practical, and there’s a strong sense of community and friendship at the school.

We aim to look after our staff well: we have an appraisal scheme with a focus on employees’ professional development; we sponsor postgraduate courses and a range of training opportunities; we offer a healthcare plan via Simply Health that includes counselling and medical support; and we’re committed to supporting staff wellbeing. Financially, all staff benefit from good pension provision and free lunches.

**Job Types**: Full-time, Permanent
