You must have a good standard of education (including English and Maths), along with strong IT skills, particularly in excel and the use of payroll software packages.

There is flexibility regarding working hours which are 22.5 hours per week between 8:30 and 5pm Monday to Friday and you are required to work all year round.

Pocklington School is a wonderful place to work. We are a supportive, kind and caring team who strive to maintain a good balance between home and work life. We enjoy what we do and seek to support all those around us in their professional and personal development. We care for our employees, with excellent benefits including fee remission, enhanced holiday entitlement, defined contribution pension scheme, health and well-being initiatives and a free high quality school lunch.
