We are seeking to appoint a highly organised and reliable Personal Assistant to the Headteacher at St Saviour’s & St Olave’s School, a highly successful multicultural Church of England school for girls aged 11-18.

The school is an Ofsted-rated good comprehensive school based in the London borough of Southwark, with a strong foundation rich in history. Year on year, our exam results exceed national average outcomes.

As Personal Assistant to the Headteacher, you will deliver the full range of secretarial and administrative duties to support the Headteacher in her day-to-day work and projects.

You will have the ability and confidence to work independently, balancing a number of projects at once, remaining calm and professional when under pressure. You will approach tasks with a positive can-do attitude, working with accuracy and attention to detail. You must have excellent I.T. skills including Outlook, Word, Excel and PowerPoint, as well as strong verbal and written communication skills. Most importantly, you must be confidential and discreet, as you will be handling sensitive information. You will line manage another PA within the leadership support team.

Previous experience of working as a PA or EA within the education or public sector and knowledge of SIMs is desirable but not essential.
