We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic receptionist/administrator to work in our busy school office and be part of a small, committed team of admin support staff. The successful candidate will often be the first port of contact for visitors and callers. As such, we are looking for a confident communicator who can quickly strike up a positive rapport with others, while effectively managing the reception area in a way that is welcoming, efficient and professional.

We pride ourselves on our friendly and supportive approach to work and look forward to welcoming a new member to the team.

The post holder will require a good level of IT, literacy and numeracy skills, including the use of Word/Excel and database operations. He/she will also have a high level of organisational and communication skills, hold a First Aid at Work qualification (or be prepared to undertake one). The key responsibilities of the post are to provide a highly effective reception service, administrative support as required, and to provide first aid cover to students as part of a team rota.

Bedale High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our pupils and young people. We have a robust Child Protection Policy and all staff will receive training relevant to their role at induction and throughout employment at the School. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is subject to a satisfactory enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service criminal records check for work with children.
