We are seeking an enthusiastic, organised and dedicated individual to join our Post-16 team as Office Manager. This is a rewarding role supporting the smooth and effective day-to-day running of our Post-16 provision. This post operates as a job-share arrangement alongside the existing Post-16 Office Manager.
