Cover Administrator
Thank you for your interest in this post at WQE.
We believe that this is a particularly exciting time to be joining us, offering a real opportunity to make a difference in this thriving and vibrant Sixth Form College. We strive for excellence in all aspects of our work with students; their academic and wider achievements, their learning experiences, the support they receive in their academic progress, their learning environment and their wider experience of College life. The College operates across two closely located campuses, next to the University of Leicester on University Road and a smaller campus at Regent Road.
In this context, we are looking to appoint a Cover Administrator to work across both the University Road and Regent Road campuses to ensure that the College provides a purposeful and safe study environment for students and staff and therefore the successful applicant will ideally have experience of working with 16 – 19 year olds.
Previous experience of dealing with students in a classroom environment in a calm manner without direct supervision is essential as is the ability to work in a friendly and professional manner, as much of the work will be student and visitor facing. In addition the successful applicant must possess the ability to use their own initiative as well as work effectively within a team.
