We are seeking to appoint an experienced and highly effective Receptionist who will provide a warm welcome to all visitors to Edgar Wood Academy. The successful candidate will be based in the main office and will provide reception and some general administrative support to the school under the direction of the Headteacher’s PA.
You must have the ability to remain calm under pressure, be organised and have a flexible approach, with the ability to manage your own workload. You will be an ambassador for the school, responsible for welcoming visitors and will act as first point of contact over the telephone and face to face.
To work at Edgar Wood Academy, you must aspire to be an outstanding colleague, with a willingness to share and learn.
