PA to Vice Principal and Hub Administrator

An opportunity has arisen for a skilled support professional to lead the administration function of the Alpha Teaching School Hub and act as PA to the Vice Principal Hub Director.  We are looking for a candidate who is proactive, calm under pressure and has a knowledge and experience of administration and technology.  Good written English, attention to detail, discretion and flexibility are also essential.  They will communicate effectively with a range of colleagues within education, across the Hub area and beyond.  This role will require both independent working and the ability to be a team player, and will suit someone who has the drive and ambition to support our Teaching School Hub to be the very best.

The successful candidate will be required to manage the operational and administrative functions of the Teaching School Hub such as dealing with information data systems with the DfE and our partner providers, communication, course bookings, invoicing and financial tracking.  The role will also involve working with our digital marketing apprentice in developing, designing and distributing promotional materials via websites, newsletters, emails and social media campaigns across the region.  The Administrator will be the first point of contact for all enquiries and requests regarding the Hub.  The role will be an exciting and demanding one; the Administrator will play an instrumental role in the establishment and day-to-day running of the new Teaching School Hub.

Knowledge of either the educational or the training sectors would be beneficial, but is not essential.
