We are renowned for a distinct and challenging approach to academic excellence that celebrates a love of learning across a wealth of disciplines, and for developing girls who move beyond their comfort zone to become fearless and adaptable leaders in their chosen field.
We are seeking a highly professional, approachable and organised administrative and admissions specialist to support the Registrar and Reception. This position offers the ideal opportunity for a candidate to expand on their administrative/reception experience or consolidate their experience in customer service/admissions.

Responsibilities include being the welcoming and efficient first point of contact for students and parents, organising events (such as Open and Tour days), maintaining the student and parent information database, and facilitating communication among internal stakeholders.
On the remaining two days, this role will manage the Reception area, providing a welcoming and organised experience for all school visitors and contacts. Responsibilities include overseeing the visitor attendance process, coordinating deliveries and messages, managing internal resource bookings, assisting with event preparation, and handling documentation for school events.
The successful applicant will possess excellent interpersonal, communication, accuracy and organisational skills, together with high level skills in Microsoft Office. Previous experience in a similar role and in the operation of Synergetic (the School’s database) would be an advantage.
In joining our supportive and collaborative team, the successful applicant can receive:
- Competitive remuneration;
- Annual and Long Service Leave entitlements in excess of the NES;
- access to an Employee Assistance Program;
- paid parental leave; and
- access to a vibrant and active social club.
