Reporting to the HR Manager, the successful candidate will be responsible for the full range of payroll and HR administrative tasks for circa 170 staff including teaching and non-teaching staff. Whilst you will be part of a friendly and supportive team, you will be required to work alone at times and manage your own workload.

To be successful, you must have previous payroll and HR admin experience. It would be advantageous if you have experience of working in an education setting, but this is not essential. What is more important is that you can uphold confidentiality and discretion, have a great can-do attitude, and remain calm and resilient even under pressure. Strong interpersonal skills are a must. Recognised CIPD or CIPP qualifications would be advantageous, but if you don’t hold them, it would be fantastic if you are willing to work towards them.
