Location: Sheffield

PK Education are working with a secondary school in Sheffield who are looking to appoint an experienced School Administrator to join their support team.

This is a busy, front-facing administration role within a mainstream secondary school, supporting the day-to-day running of the school office. The successful candidate will need to be confident dealing with staff, students, parents and external visitors while managing a varied administrative workload.

Please note: previous UK school administration experience is essential for this role. The school are specifically looking for somebody who is already familiar with working in a UK education setting and can confidently use a school management system such as Arbor, SIMS or Bromcom.

This is not a role where the school can provide extensive training on school systems, so applicants without previous experience using one of these systems will unfortunately not be suitable.

This Role Would Suit

An experienced School Administrator, Receptionist or Attendance Administrator who is already familiar with the pace and demands of a UK school environment and is comfortable picking up a role without requiring extensive system training.

If you have strong administration experience but have not previously worked within a UK school or used Arbor, SIMS or Bromcom, this particular role is unlikely to be suitable.
