The role

If you are a committed and organised administrator with a passion for sport, then Emanuel School has an exciting opportunity for you within our thriving Sports Department.

As a Sports Administrator, you will provide efficient and effective administrative support to ensure the smooth day-to-day running of the department, with a particular focus on all aspects of the provision and operation of the school's sports facilities.

This will include updating the sports website, ensuring all forthcoming fixtures are listed, as well as acting as the first point of contact to pupils, parents and staff. You will also order and maintain sports equipment, supplies and first aid kits, replacing used stock and ordering supplies when necessary.

This is a part time role, working 2.5 days a week during term-time (35 weeks per year), from Monday to Wednesday.

About you

We are looking for a personable and enthusiastic individual, with experience of developing and sustaining positive working relationships. You will be proficient in the use of Microsoft Word, Excel and database software, pairing this with strong organisational and communication skills, and a keen eye for detail. An interest in sports is essential, along with a willingness to take on ad-hoc duties to support the wider department and the school.

Working at Emanuel

There is always a buzz at Emanuel. Colleagues enjoy their work and, like the pupils, are ambitious for the school. With a weekly staff briefing, half termly staff meetings, termly consultative group meetings and a common room committee, all of us are engaged in a lively ongoing dialogue about the school's aims and aspirations.

Everyone works hard here, and anyone joining us should expect to do the same and share our commitment to the highest standards. At the same time our ethos remains unpretentious, kindly and practical, and there's a strong sense of community and friendship at the school.

We aim to look after our staff well: we have an appraisal scheme with a focus on employees' professional development; we sponsor postgraduate courses and a range of training opportunities; we offer salary sacrifice childcare vouchers through TEDS Premier, we offer a healthcare plan via Simply Health that includes counselling and medical support; and we're committed to supporting staff wellbeing. Financially, all staff benefit from good pension provision and free lunches.
