Business Administration Manager [Ref: WD5409]
£24,791 - £25,935 per annum
37 hours per week, 52 weeks per year
Our vibrant Creative Industries team is looking for a Business Administration Manager to lead and co-ordinate key administrative operations that enable the delivery of outstanding customer service.
You will provide leadership to a team of administrators, ensuring processes run smoothly, efficiently, and in alignment with business objectives.
In this dynamic role, no two days will be the same. One day you might be scheduling meetings or planning an event, the next you could be liaising with students, parents, and staff, placing orders, updating timetables, or working with colleagues to manage budgets. These are just a few examples-the variety is what makes the role exciting, and your responsibilities will go beyond these examples.
Essential requirements for the role include experience of working in a fast paced, customer focused environment within an administrative role in a supervisory capacity. You will also have familiarity with management information systems/data bases and financial and facilities management principles (including input and analysis of data). Proven knowledge of Microsoft applications and office management procedures including Health & Safety are also essential.

We have a fantastic range of staff benefits, highly competitive against what is offered by the private sector and other organisations, including:
1. Local Government Pension Scheme - the Group contributes 20.4% of your actual pensionable pay.
2. 25 days annual leave, increasing to 28 days in line with continuous service, plus bank holidays and college closure days over the Christmas period which are not deducted from annual leave entitlement and a wellbeing day. Plus, the opportunity to purchase up to 5 days additional leave.
3. Discount schemes - including discounts on shopping, restaurants, travel and onsite facilities such as our gym and First Steps Childcare nurseries (specific campuses only).
4. Family friendly policies - including enhanced maternity, paternity and adoption pay (dependant on continuous service).
5. Continuous professional development opportunities - including development days, funded apprenticeships and access to a range of other courses and activities.
