We are looking for a warm, confident, organised and proactive Admissions Assistant to join our friendly and ambitious team on a permanent basis. This role is part-time, Monkton term-time only and specifically focuses on admissions into our Nursery through to Reception. This is a role for someone who loves talking to people, building relationships and helping families make one of the most important decisions of their lives.

• build rapport with parents and pupils
• understand what families are looking for
• keep them warmly engaged
• and make sure no one ever feels forgotten

This is a sales-minded, relationship-driven role; more than an administrative position. You will be actively moving families through the admissions journey, following up after visits, answering questions, inviting them back and making sure Monkton is always front of mind.

• Organised, efficient and detail-focused
• Proactive: you don’t wait to be chased, you do the contacting

You might come from a background in sales, customer service, hospitality, recruitment, account management or client relations - what matters most is that you enjoy people, communication and follow-up.

You will:

Drive the admissions pipeline

• Follow up new enquiries quickly and warmly
• Keep families engaged with calls, emails and invitations
• Update records so the team always knows where each family is in their journey
• Close the loop when families decide not to proceed, and understand why

Create brilliant visit experiences

• Book and tailor-make school visits and taster sessions
• Welcome families on arrival and ensure they feel looked after
• Arrange meetings with staff and pupils
• Give tours of the school
• Follow up quickly afterwards to provide next steps and gather feedback

Guide families through applications

• Acknowledge registrations and explain the admissions journey
• Request reports and / or references
• Arrange entrance assessments
• Liaise with Learning Support, Safeguarding and senior staff where needed

Manage offers and acceptances

• Ensure data held in the applications database is accurately maintained and updated, including application status and any supporting notes
• Send and chase offers
• Send joining information and ensure all required documentation is in place
• Liaise with academic staff regarding pre-arrival preparations

Support key recruitment events

• Open Events, such as open mornings and Stay & Play
• Experience Days
• Bespoke family visits

All of this work is underpinned by accurate record-keeping, but the purpose is always the same: to give families a smooth, warm and confidence-building journey into Monkton.

If you love people, thrive on conversation, enjoy being organised and take pride in helping families feel truly cared for, we would love to hear from you.

If this sounds like you, here are some of the benefits we can offer:

• Fee remission of 45% from Reception to Year 8 and 60% from Year 9 - Year 13 (pro rata for part-time)
• 75% discount at Monkton Leisure Centre and pool (pro rata for part-time)

The Role

Monkton is seeking to appoint a dedicated and professional nurse to join our small, hardworking and friendly medical centre team working across the whole school.
The aim of the role is to support pupils’ health and wellbeing so that they can fully participate in school life and provide health care to members of the school community. In both areas, the medical centre team strives to develop and maintain positive and mutually supportive relationships with the wider school community, particularly those at the core of our exceptional pastoral care.
Our nurses work on a shift basis across both sites and therefore a flexible approach to this is essential. Due to the nature of the role, and in keeping with the nature of an Independent Boarding School, hours of work can include evenings and weekends.
