Opportunities to work with us

We are looking to appoint a permanent Administrator to join the small but friendly HR team at our school, a school of great character, to start immediately.

This position plays a key role in supporting the employee lifecycle, with a particular focus on safer recruitment and safeguarding compliance for staff, volunteers and some contractors. This includes administering the recruitment process from advertising through to induction, ensuring all pre-employment checks are completed, and maintaining accurate records in line with statutory requirements and school policies. They will also provide administrative support under the direction of the Head of HR, for staff induction, safeguarding training, and the maintenance of the school’s Single Central Register. They will be key in supporting the tracking of staff leave, data entry for absence records and HR records, and other HR administration processes e.g. probation and appraisal.

We are seeking an organised and proactive administrator with excellent attention to detail and strong IT skills. The successful candidate will have experience of managing confidential information with discretion, working to deadlines, and delivering a high standard of service in a busy environment. Strong interpersonal and communication skills, both written and verbal, are essential, along with the ability to build effective working relationships across the school. Prior experience within HR or recruitment administration is desirable but not essential, as training will be provided.

This role is part of our Operations and Professional Services team. This is an onsite role, working Monday through Friday, 37.5 hours per week.

The closing date for applications is noon on Tuesday 7 October 2025 with interviews scheduled for Friday 17 October 2025. Applications must include a completed Exeter School application form. For safeguarding purposes, a CV alone is not sufficient. For more information and to apply, please click here.
