PA to the Deputy Heads & School Secretary
To start January 2025
We are looking to appoint a full-time PA to the Deputy Heads & School Secretary at our popular co-ed school in the heart of Notting Hill to join a highly committed, friendly and passionate team.
The role requires someone who has the ability to multi-task in a fast-paced environment and has good organisational and administrative skills. At the centre of everything that goes on in school, duties will be varied, including looking after the children’s needs, acting as PA to the Deputy Heads (Academic and Pastoral), and supporting colleagues and parents. An excellent front-of-house manner, an approachable, friendly disposition, and a willingness to participate in school life are considered important qualities for this position.
Notting Hill Prep is a ‘Thinking School’, a title which reflects its intelligent approach to education and its devotion to instilling in its children the values of resilience, creativity and responsibility, which it holds dear. We teach children not merely to learn, but to learn how to learn. The successful applicant will share the school’s aspirations.
This role will involve contact with, and responsibility for, children and will amount to ‘regulated activity’.
Previous school experience is highly desirable. The candidate must have excellent written English and strong secretarial, organisational, and computer skills.
The salary will be competitive, depending on experience. We offer free school lunches and 6 weeks holiday to be taken in school holidays.
Please click the ‘Apply’ button to submit your application form.
The closing date for completed applications is 9am on Friday 3rd January 2025, although early applications are encouraged.
Interviews will be held on the mornings of 7th & 10th January 2025. The interview will include an in-tray exercise. The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the DBS. The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (1974) and the School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are ‘spent’ unless they are ‘protected’ under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children. NHP is an equal opportunities employer.
