In one week you could be doing any number of things from ensuring our teachers can access the right equipment for their training, to planning a book launch with our librarian, welcoming our trustees to a meeting, scoping and overseeing maintenance works around our building, or looking after a famous children’s author. 

We have a friendly, talented and committed team working both from the building and remotely. We are looking for a special person to ensure everything runs smoothly and efficiently

• excellent attention to detail and a commitment to evolving systems and processes that make everything more efficient 

• excellent customer service skills and experience 

• the ability to liaise and communicate effectively with a wide range of people within and outside of the organisation
