Are you an experienced Office Manager with a passion for leading a team and fostering a positive school community?
Davies Stewart is thrilled to partner with Westminster School, a highly respected co-educational Uniting Church School in Adelaide, to find their next Office Manager for the Senior School Administration team. This is a unique employment opportunity for a high-calibre candidate to play a pivotal role in shaping the administrative heart of the school.
Westminster is not just a school; it's a vibrant community that prides itself on helping students and staff achieve more than they thought possible. Their values—brave, humble, kind, authentic, resilient, and curious—are lived every day. As the Office Manager, you will be the lynchpin of the Senior School, providing essential administrative leadership and support that enhances the school's reputation and contributes to its welcoming culture.
About the Job:
This full-time job is more than just managing an office; it's about people, process, and partnership. You will lead the Senior School administration team, providing guidance and support while fostering a strong service culture. Your day will be dynamic and varied, from offering confidential administrative support to the Deputy Principal/Head of Senior School to coordinating major school events and ensuring the seamless delivery of all activities. You will be a key player in identifying and implementing cross-school practices that improve efficiency and consistency across the entire school.
The successful candidate will bring substantial experience in a similar role, with a proven ability to lead and mentor a team. You'll be a lateral-thinking problem-solver with a high level of initiative and resilience. Your advanced IT skills, particularly in Microsoft Office and database management, will be crucial. Most importantly, you will have highly developed interpersonal skills, allowing you to build positive relationships with students, staff, and parents alike.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and mentor the Senior School administration team
- Provide high-level secretarial and administrative support to the Deputy Principal/Head of Senior School
- Coordinate relevant Senior School activities, major events, and parent-teacher interviews
- Manage student records and ensure data accuracy
- Foster a collaborative and efficient administrative culture across the school
- Assist with general office activities and budgetary control
If you are a highly organised, proactive, and compassionate professional seeking a challenging and rewarding job in a fantastic South Australian school environment, we encourage you to apply. This is your chance to make a real impact within a supportive and forward-thinking organisation.
