Roles and responsibilities specific to this post:
The role of the Administrator will be to provide a friendly welcome to families and colleagues coming into the centre in person and on the phone. You would use local knowledge of the community and early help provision to signpost families to relevant support. As a member of a wider admin team across the district you would work together with the team to share ideas and solutions and offer a consistent approach. You would offer this support through a variety of means including: virtual platforms, by phone, and in person. All of our work is all about making the biggest impact during the best window of opportunity in a child's life.
Recording all of our centre activity is of prime importance to collating our reports to our commissioners. Another key role of the administrator is to ensure all our service users are registered and that their details and the details of the activities they are attending are input into our data recording systems.
