ABOUT BOSWORTH INDEPENDENT SCHOOL
Bosworth Independent School is a relatively small school of approximately 300 students. This enables us to offer a supportive family atmosphere, where students and staff can enjoy their work and thrive as valued people and professionals. Our ethos is one that believes in the importance of the individual and celebrates success regardless of the level. Students come from a wide variety of countries and are motivated and aspirational, mostly aiming for Russell Group and Oxbridge.
ABOUT OUR SUMMER SCHOOL
Across all our sites we run a busy Summer School, welcoming anywhere up to 400 students on short summer courses. The students come from all over the world and are here to learn English and explore our wonderful cities and towns.
In order to make sure they have a five star experience, we need a team of motivated people to help out with operations. This is a varied role with an evolving list of tasks. You could be making beds, cleaning rooms or making sandwiches!
Offering an hourly rate of £12.21 per hour on a 40hr per week contract, the positions are for 6-10 weeks from mid-late June (various start dates available). Accommodation with board is available if required at a cost.
The roles would suit college / uni students, gap students or anyone looking to earn an extra income this summer. You do not need any experience as full training will be given. We also have some weekend only positions available, this can be discussed at initial screening. You will need to possess a can-do attitude as it is all hands on deck during the summer. An ability to work on your own initiative as well as being a good team player is a pre-requisite. Experience gained within a residential environment would be of use and a sense of humour goes a long way too!
