About our school
Pattison School is a small, nurturing independent school with a strong ethos of care, creativity and community. We are committed to supporting every child to thrive academically, socially and artistically. Our size allows us to know each student as an individual and to create an environment where they feel valued, supported and inspired.
The Role
At Pattison School, we believe every family's journey should begin with a warm welcome, expert guidance and exceptional support. We're looking for an enthusiastic and relationship-focused Admissions Manager to lead and develop our admissions process, helping families discover the life-changing opportunities our school can offer.
This is far more than an administration role. As the face of the school for prospective families, you'll create outstanding experiences from the very first enquiry through to enrolment, ensuring every family feels informed, valued and supported throughout their journey.
Working closely with the Headteacher and Senior Leadership Team, you'll develop strong community partnerships, showcase the school through engaging tours and events, and use admissions insights to help shape future growth. If you're passionate about people, thrive on building relationships and enjoy making a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
- Managing the admissions process from enquiry to enrolment, ensuring an outstanding experience for every family.
- Delivering engaging school tours, open events and taster sessions that showcase the school.
- Maintaining accurate admissions records and CRM systems.
- Monitoring admissions data, trends and conversion rates to support future planning.
- Building strong relationships with families, schools, nurseries and community partners.
- Supporting onboarding and transition arrangements for new students.
- Working closely with senior leaders to enhance community engagement and promote the school.
What you will bring
- Experience in admissions, recruitment, customer service, sales, community engagement or a similar people-focused role.
- A confident communicator who enjoys building relationships and delivering excellent customer experiences.
- Highly organised with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage competing priorities.
- Comfortable using CRM systems, databases and digital platforms.
- Data-aware, professional and solution-focused, with a genuine passion for supporting children and families.
