The governors are seeking to appoint a Senior Business Assistant (maternity cover) to join our amazing team.

The successful candidate will be able to multitask, communicate effectively with all stakeholders and ensure safeguarding practices are secure.
Situated a short distance from the Peak District National Park and with easy access to both Nottingham and Derby city centres, Cotmanhay Junior School is an awesome school.

We want our pupils to inspire their community and help to make it an incredible place to live and learn, so if you have the skills and desire to be part of our wonderful team we would love to hear from you.
Safeguarding checks will be undertaken for all shortlisted candidates. It is an offence to apply for this role if you are barred from engaging in regulated activity related to children.
