Job Overview The Registrar reports directly to the Head, and plays a crucial role in helping to build on the success of Somerhill. The Registrar is responsible for pupil recruitment and admissions at Somerhill and acts as an ambassador for the school in promoting its values and ethos in all interactions with prospective parents. The Registrar works very closely with the Marketing Manager, with both roles providing mutual support to each other at peak activity periods, and with the Communications Manager. We are looking for a candidate with a good understanding of prep schools and a strong empathy with our school’s ethos and focus on care for the child. They will be a natural and engaging communicator and possess excellent organisational and administrative skills, with good attention to detail when handling data. A sensitivity to prospective parents’ needs and the confidence to positively promote the school in a balanced and sophisticated way are important for this role.

Some flexibility will be required to support recruitment events and tours that may take place outside the standard hours and at weekends, to fulfil the remit of the role.
We are looking for a dynamic and proactive candidate to join this busy Admissions, Communications and Marketing Department. The ideal candidate will have worked in a similar role before, and will have strong communications skills, commercial understanding as well as a willingness to manage stakeholders across all functions of the school. This role is a permanent contract, starting ideally in October 2025 for a handover with the current Registrar.
