About this Role

JOIN THE FRONTLINE OF AWESOME!  

Administration Assistant / Receptionist

 

 The Role (a.k.a. The Heartbeat of the School!)

 

Are you the kind of person who can greet visitors with a smile, tame ringing phones like a pro, and organise chaos into calm… all before your second cup of tea?  

 

We’re on the lookout for a **super-organised, people-loving, multitasking wizard** to become the face (and voice) of University Collegiate School.

 

What You’ll Be Doing (Your Superpowers in Action):

 

- Welcoming students, staff, parents, and visitors with warmth and professionalism 

- Managing a busy reception desk (phones, emails, enquiries… you name it!) 

- Keeping admin tasks ticking along like a perfectly oiled machine 

- Supporting the wider school team with day-to-day operations 

- Being the go-to person for *“Where do I go?”* and *“Can you help?”* moments 

 

What We’re Looking For:

 

- A natural people person with a friendly, confident manner 

- Organised, detail-loving and able to juggle tasks without dropping the ball

- Calm under pressure (even when the bell rings and everything happens at once!) 

- Strong IT and communication skills 

- A team player with a positive, can-do attitude 

 

Bonus points if you bring a sense of humour and a love of a lively school environment!

 

Why Join Us?

 

At University Collegiate School, no two days are the same – and that’s exactly how we like it! 

 

You’ll be part of a supportive team in a vibrant school community where your role truly matters. Plus, there’s always something happening (and plenty of tea opportunities… essential!). ☕😄

 

  • An additional day of leave – a wellness day to focus on your wellbeing
  • Cycle to work scheme and family friendly policies
  • Local Government Pension Scheme
  • A supportive, forward-thinking school community
  • Students who will surprise, challenge, and occasionally confuse you (in a good way)
  • Opportunities to innovate and bring your weird and wonderful ideas to life
  • Tea. Lots of tea. Possibly biscuits.

 

👉 Apply today and bring your energy, personality and admin magic to UCS Bolton.

 

*Because every great school needs an amazing first impression – and that starts with YOU.*
