Job Overview
Woodcote High School is looking for an enthusiastic and committed School Administrator, to join our busy and thriving Information Management Team.
Woodcote High School is a fantastic place to work and learn. We have recently joined The Collegiate Trust whose vision of an exceptional education for all accurately describes the ambitions we hold for our students. They are bright, well-motivated and a pleasure to work with, whilst our staff are talented, hard-working and ambitious for themselves and others.
What does the role involve?
We are looking to appoint a highly motivated administrator with a positive and welcoming disposition to provide high-quality administrative support. The successful candidate will be responsible for delivering an exceptional level of service, requiring strong organisational skills, the ability to manage a complex workload effectively, and a proactive approach to problem-solving. The ideal candidate will demonstrate professionalism, emotional intelligence, and the ability to serve as a confident and reliable role model within the school environment. While a working knowledge of school systems would be an advantage, it is not essential. This post offers the benefit of membership in the Local Government Pension Scheme.
This is a new, exciting and very fulfilling post, providing excellent preparation for further promotion and, naturally, there will be high quality support and opportunities for further professional learning and development in the role.
Who are we looking for?

Our world-class Track Coulsdon is at the heart of our great sport and PE facilities, and we have a full range of extra-curricular sport.
In the Sixth Form, in addition to the whole school enrichment programme, students have the opportunity to stand for student leadership positions, take part in charity events and lead assemblies for raising awareness on subjects they are passionate about.
