The Opportunity Are you the ultimate multi-tasker with a friendly face and a calm head? Can you be the professional "front of house" for a busy educational community in the heart of the Steel City?
We are seeking an organised and personable School Receptionist to join a vibrant administrative team in Sheffield . As the first point of contact for students, parents, and visitors, you will play a vital role in the daily life of the school. Located in a city famous for its seven hills and friendly character, this school needs someone who can balance high-level administrative duties with a warm, welcoming approach.

• Student Support: Assisting students with daily enquiries—from forgotten PE kits to lost property—and providing a calm presence for those feeling unwell or anxious.
• Administrative Operations: Supporting the wider office with tasks such as data entry (using systems like SIMS, Arbor, or Bromcom ), filing, and the distribution of school correspondence.
• Safeguarding Vigilance: Monitoring the main entrance and ensuring that all visitors are appropriately vetted and badged in line with "Keeping Children Safe in Education" (KCSIE) guidelines.
• Attendance Coordination: Assisting the attendance officer by recording late arrivals and managing the "signing out" process for students with appointments.
Why This School? • Sheffield’s Community Spirit: Work in a "Large Village" city where strong relationships are at the heart of everything, providing a rewarding environment for a people-focused professional.
• Supportive Office Team: Join a close-knit administrative department that values collaboration, humor, and mutual support during the morning "rush hour."
• Central Hub Role: Occupy a position that interacts with everyone—from the Headteacher to the Site Team—giving you a unique and holistic view of how a school functions.
• Professional Development: Access to training in Safeguarding , First Aid , and specialist school management software (MIS), with pathways toward Senior Administrator or Office Manager roles.
Candidate Profile • Experience: Previous experience in a reception or administrative role is essential; experience within an educational setting is highly desirable.
• Technical Skills: Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook) and the ability to learn school-specific databases quickly.
• Communication: Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to remain polite and professional under pressure.
• Character: A resilient, proactive, and empathetic individual who can handle sensitive information with confidentiality and "think on their feet."

Key Responsibilities • Support pupils with SEND throughout the school day.
• Build positive, trusting relationships that encourage confidence and engagement.
• Use your coaching skills to motivate pupils and promote positive behaviour.
• Support classroom learning and practical activities across a variety of subjects.
• Lead small group activities and intervention sessions when appropriate.
• Encourage teamwork, communication and independence.
• Assist with breaktimes, educational visits and enrichment activities.
• Work closely with teachers and the wider school team to provide the best possible outcomes for pupils.
About You We would love to hear from candidates who have experience as:
• Sports Coach
• Football Coach
• Rugby Coach
• Cricket Coach
• Multi-Sports Coach
• PE Coach
• Gymnastics Coach
• Martial Arts Instructor
• Swimming Teacher

• Youth Worker
• Community Coach
You'll also have:
• A positive, energetic and resilient attitude.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• A genuine passion for supporting children and young people.
• The ability to remain calm and adaptable in different situations.
• A willingness to learn and develop within SEND education.
• Availability to work full-time during term time from September 2026 .
Previous school experience is welcomed but not essential . If you have experience coaching children or young people, we would love to hear from you.
Why Work Through Tradewind Recruitment? • Competitive daily rates of pay.
• Access to over 2,500 FREE CPD courses through The National College.
• Ongoing support from a dedicated specialist SEND consultant.
• Opportunities to work within a highly respected Multi-Academy Trust.
• Flexible payroll options.
• Long-term positions with the opportunity to secure permanent employment.
• A rewarding career where you can make a genuine difference every day.
Salary Information (£95-£120 per day) Our daily rates of pay are determined individually and are based on several factors, including:
• Your experience working with children and young people.
• Previous coaching, mentoring or behaviour management experience.
• The complexity of the role and responsibilities required by the school.
• Whether the role includes supporting pupils with personal care, medical needs or highly complex behaviours.
• Relevant qualifications, training and transferable skills.
• The budget allocated by the school for the specific vacancy.
Candidates with significant experience supporting children or young people, alongside relevant coaching qualifications and strong behaviour management skills, are more likely to be considered for opportunities towards the higher end of the pay scale.
