What skills and experience we're looking for
We are seeking a confident, professional, and highly organised Reception Manager & Administrative Support to Senior Leaders to join our vibrant team at Kepier. This is a pivotal front-of-house role requiring efficiency and the ability to manage multiple responsibilities to a high standard.
As the first point of contact for our school community, you’ll lead the daily running of our reception, support senior leadership with complex administrative tasks, and manage key processes including first aid provision and cover arrangements.
What We’re Looking For
• A proactive, positive communicator who thrives in a fast-paced environment
• Strong organisational and IT skills (including SIMS, Microsoft Office, and/or Google Suite)
• Experience in managing a reception or front-of-house environment
• Confident in liaising with external agencies and senior staff
• Able to maintain discretion and professionalism at all times
• Willingness to undertake and lead on First Aid responsibilities
What the school offers its staff
✅ A supportive and collaborative Admin team.
✅ Career progression opportunities.
✅ A welcoming and well-resourced environment.
✅ Strong leadership that values and supports its staff.
Kepier is a thriving and ambitious secondary school with a strong reputation for staff development and well-being. We have high expectations for learning and behaviour, supported by robust systems that allow teachers to focus on what they do best—teaching. In our most recent Ofsted inspection, ‘impeccable’ was a word used to describe our learners’ behaviour, reflecting our commitment to a positive and respectful learning environment.
Commitment to safeguarding
The school is fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share in this commitment. As part of our due diligence and to comply with our obligations in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education, an online search of publicly available information will be undertaken for all shortlisted candidates. All School posts are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore applicants will be subject to appropriate background checks and vetting including an enhanced DBS check and checks against the children’s barred list.
