Would you like to be part of an exciting journey by joining a newly opened and growing school, based at our brand-new site with outstanding facilities off Thorpeville, to start as soon as available?

Northampton School (part of The NSB Trust) is looking for a versatile and enthusiastic member of staff to work as part of our Admin Team with a specific focus on supporting the personal development of students through the Careers and Work Experience programme. There may be some occasions where support for an evening event is needed so a degree of flexibility would be useful.

Working with the support of the Assistant Headteacher who oversees our Personal Development programme, you will be responsible for providing administrative support for our students before, during and after their Work Experience placements in the autumn term of Year 10. This will involve communicating with staff, students, parents and companies through our work experience programme platform, ‘Unifrog’.

Support for the personal development programme will also specifically include administration linked to the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme as well as general administration/clerical work as required by the school and, in addition, you will support the Careers Adviser with the organisation of careers meetings with students at NS as they progress through the school and support with the general careers programme as required.

• You must be professional and a good communicator when working with parents/carers and outside agencies.
