About the Role
We are seeking to appoint a dynamic, ambitious and passionate member of staff to join our very effective and highly valued Student Support team.
Candidates should ideally have experience of working with young people, have excellent communication skills and a good level of education. The ability to build good relationships with students and their parents is essential. A high level of confidentiality will also apply to this role.
The role will involve working closely with the teaching Heads of Year who work to support students with their academic progress, their behaviour for learning, and their pastoral support and wellbeing. The role will also involve general support in the student Hub for all year groups, liaising with other staff, parents and sometimes external agencies along with administrative duties such as phone calls home, arranging and attending meetings with parents and taking meeting notes when necessary.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
We are looking for someone who will be available for 34.17 hours over 5 days per week, term time only (39 weeks) (8:30am to 4:00pm with a 40-minute unpaid lunch break)
The Successful Candidate Will
- Care deeply and have high ambitions for every one of our students
