To start as soon as possible
As one of the most successful and over-subscribed, non-selective schools in South West London, we are a truly inclusive and dynamic place to work.
The successful candidate will be responsible for all aspects surrounding the admission of pupils to the school, both at the usual age of transfer from primary school, into the Sixth Form, and mid-year as necessary. This role requires excellent interpersonal and communication skills as the key link between prospective parents, Senior Leadership Team and Governors. This is a busy and varied role and candidates must have strong organisational, data handling and ICT skills, including Excel. Knowledge of Arbor and Applicaa would be an advantage, as would previous experience of working in a school setting, but is not a specific requirement.
As a vibrant school of just over 1,000 pupils with a thriving academic Sixth Form, Saint Cecilia’s is also a caring Christian community, and together with a close-knit team of dedicated teaching and support staff, has achieved excellent academic success. Whilst candidates must be in sympathy with the aims of a Church of England School, a Christian commitment is not essential.
Located close to Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Club, Saint Cecilia’s is well connected to central London and the West End, as well as the tranquil Surrey countryside, by exceptional transport links. The school lies within the Inner London Weighting area, which adds a significant increase to salary.
The nearest underground station is Southfields (District line – Zone 3 and less than a five-minute walk), which is only five minutes from Wimbledon station and 16 minutes from Earl’s Court. The area is well served by numerous bus connections to Clapham Junction and Richmond.
