Job Description
We are seeking a dedicated and organised School Admin Staff member to join a vibrant educational setting in the heart of Bristol BS1. This is a critical immediate start role, perfect for a professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is passionate about supporting the smooth operation of a school. As the first point of contact for parents, pupils, and staff, you will be the backbone of the school office, ensuring administrative processes run seamlessly and contributing directly to a positive learning atmosphere. The school is looking for a reliable individual to step in quickly, demonstrating the same commitment to excellence we see in other skilled trades we place, such as a meticulous Tiler or a precise Carpenter.
Temping Agency specialises in connecting talented individuals with rewarding opportunities across Bristol and the UK. By applying for this School Admin Staff position through us, you gain access to our extensive network of local schools and educational institutions. We handle all the complexities of temporary staffing, from payroll to compliance, allowing you to focus on excelling in your role. Whether you're seeking flexible hours to balance other commitments or a foot in the door for a permanent career in education administration, this role offers a fantastic pathway. Much like our successful placements for Urgent AV Tech Jobs In Leeds LS9 or specialised Health Visitor roles, we ensure a professional and supportive match between candidate and client.
Key Responsibilities
- Act as the first and friendly point of contact, managing the school reception desk, answering telephone calls, and greeting visitors with professionalism.
- Provide comprehensive administrative support to teaching staff and senior leadership, including preparing documents, managing correspondence, and data entry into school management systems (e.g., SIMS, Arbor).
- Oversee pupil attendance procedures, following up on absences, maintaining accurate registers, and generating reports for the pastoral team.
- Coordinate school communications, distributing letters to parents via email and post, updating the school website and social media channels with key information.
- Assist with logistical tasks such as arranging cover for staff absences, managing room bookings, and supporting the organisation of school events and parent evenings.
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience in an administrative role, preferably within a school, educational, or similarly busy office environment. A keen eye for detail is as crucial here as it is for a Roofer ensuring a watertight seal.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to interact calmly and effectively with children, parents, and colleagues of all levels.
- Strong IT literacy, including confidence with Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook) and a willingness to learn specific school software packages.
- A proactive, problem-solving attitude and the ability to manage a varied workload under pressure while maintaining a positive, can-do approach.
Salary & Benefits
We believe in rewarding skill and dedication fairly. For this School Admin Staff position in Bristol BS1, we offer a highly competitive hourly pay rate, which will be discussed transparently during your registration and is based on your relevant experience and qualifications. Pay is processed weekly, providing you with reliable and regular income. In addition to the financial reward, working through Temping Agency comes with a suite of benefits designed to support your career and well-being.
