Corporate Administrator

ALP Schools is a group of five “Good” independent specialist schools for young people with SEND, all of whom have Education, Health and Care Plans. We’re looking for an organised, proactive Corporate Administrator to help keep things running smoothly day-to-day at ALP Leicester.

You’ll be the link between the school and our central HR and finance teams, making sure processes run accurately and in line with policy. The role covers:

1. recruitment administration and Safer Recruitment documentation
2. staff records, induction and the HR mailbox
3. absence monitoring, payroll inputs, mileage and expenses
4. petty cash, purchasing and keeping asset registers up to date
5. staff training compliance, records management and exams administration
6. attendance reporting to local authorities and coordinating learner transport
7. acting as the school’s Arbor Champion and taking minutes in meetings

We’d love to hear from you if you:

1. have strong organisational and time management skills and can juggle a varied workload
2. pay close attention to detail and handle sensitive information with discretion
3. are confident using ICT and school or HR systems
4. have English and maths at Level 2 or equivalent
5. have worked in a school or SEND setting (desirable, not essential)

In return, you’ll join a supportive team that puts staff wellbeing and professional development at the heart of what we do.

We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive a high volume of suitable applications, so we’d encourage you to apply as soon as possible.
