We are looking for a warm, organized and welcoming School Receptionist to join an SEMH school in Bury St Edmunds. This setting supports children and young people with social, emotional and mental health needs and provides a calm, nurturing and supportive environment where every student is valued and understood.

As the first point of contact, you will help the school run smoothly each day. You will greet visitors, parents and professionals, manage incoming calls and emails, and support staff with a range of administrative tasks. Daily duties include welcoming visitors to the school, answering and directing calls, managing enquiries, supporting attendance and safeguarding procedures, maintaining accurate records, preparing documents and working closely with teaching and pastoral staff to keep daily operations running smoothly.

We are looking for someone who is approachable, patient and confident communicating with a wide range of people. You should be organized, able to multitask and remain calm during busy periods. Experience working in a school or SEND/SEMH environment is helpful but not essential. Good IT skills and a willingness to learn new systems are important.

Inspire EHC and our partner school in Suffolk are fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Applicants will undergo an enhanced DBS check and provide at least two independent references.

As an Equal Opportunities employer, Inspire EHC values diversity and inclusion.

Unfortunately, we are unable to provide sponsorship.
