Office Manager

Thank you for your interest in the role of Office Manager at English Martyrs’ Roman Catholic
Primary School.

As the Chair of the Governing Board, I am delighted to welcome you to our school and parish
community.

The Office Manager is at the heart of the school’s daily operations, ensuring that everything runs
smoothly, efficiently, and with a warm, welcoming approach for pupils, staff, parents, and
visitors alike. This role goes far beyond administration; it is a position of trust, organisation, and
leadership that underpins the effective functioning of the entire school.

Working closely with the Headteacher, governing board and Emmaus Catholic Academy Trust,
the Office Manager provides essential support in areas such as HR, communication, finance,
attendance and safeguarding processes. They are often the first point of contact for families and
play a key role in shaping the school’s professional and caring ethos. Their ability to manage
competing priorities, maintain confidentiality, and foster positive relationships is fundamental to
creating a safe and supportive environment for all.

We recognise that a skilled and dedicated Office Manager contributes significantly to the
success and wellbeing of the school. Their commitment helps ensure that staff can focus on
teaching and learning, while parents and carers feel informed and supported. It is a role that
requires resilience, attention to detail, and a genuine passion for working within an educational
setting.

If you feel that you have the skills, commitment and personal attributes that this post requires,
we would welcome your application.

Yours Faithfully,
Father Kieren Mullarkey
Chair of Governors
