We are looking to appoint a Cover Administrator and Learning Supervisor to manage staff absences (planned or unplanned), and arrange cover supervision.
The successful candidate will also be required to undertake some cover during staff absence to ensure that the pupils maintain good order and keep on task. This is not a teaching role and will be in a supervisory capacity only.
This is a term time only position. The hours of work are:
7am - 3.30pm (Monday - Thursday)
7am - 3pm (Friday)
Candidates should be confident within both an educational environment and a busy administrative role, and ideally have had some experience of working in a school previously, although this is not essential as training will be provided.
Flexible, self-motivated and able to work on own initiative, you will need the ability to work to deadlines and remain calm under pressure.
Excellent IT skills and good interpersonal skills are a must, as is a good sense of humour!
Full details of the role and person specification are available on our website, together with an application form - www.shsb.org.uk
