Hatch Training is working with a fantastic nursery group to recruit a Business Administration Apprentice to support the day-to-day administration of their Kenilworth nursery, while also providing administrative support to their Coventry nursery.
This is a great opportunity for someone who has a genuine passion for the Early Years sector and would enjoy building their career in a busy nursery environment.
The successful candidate will be based at the Kenilworth nursery and will not be required to work from the Coventry setting. However, part of the role will involve supporting the Coventry nursery with administration remotely.
This role would suit someone who is organised, approachable, and confident working in a busy and lively nursery environment. The nursery office can be loud and there will be times when you are working around children, practitioners, and the general day-to-day activity of the setting, so you should be comfortable working in this type of environment.
Your Role
Your exact responsibilities will develop as you gain experience, but you could be involved in:
- Providing day-to-day administrative support to the Kenilworth nursery
- Supporting the administration of the Coventry nursery remotely
- Updating children’s and staff records
- Maintaining accurate and confidential documentation
- Answering telephone calls and responding to emails
- Supporting parent and staff enquiries
- Preparing documents, records, and reports
- Updating spreadsheets and databases
- Supporting with invoices and general paperwork
- Assisting with compliance and regulatory administration
- Supporting staff with general administrative tasks
- Helping to keep nursery records organised and up to date
- Using Microsoft Office and other business systems
- Supporting the smooth running of the nursery office
