Following our recent Ofsted inspection, we are looking for a Senior First Aid Officer to support The Academy to operate safety and efficiently and enable the students and staff to be the best they can be.
What are we looking for:
Ideally, we are looking for someone who has experience in a first aid role. The successful candidate will be well organised, reliable, competent, adaptable and conscientious. They will have good spoken and written English and good ICT skills, including the ability to communicate effectively with secondary aged students, teachers and parents.
The role includes supporting students and staff with a variety of medical needs, and the applicant will therefore need plenty of common sense, along with the ability to deploy tact, diplomacy and sensitivity. They will have a calm and positive manner, work well as part of a team and crucially be able to exercise sound judgement and act swiftly in emergency situations. The role can be physically demanding at times, so a good level of fitness is required.
Safeguarding and wellbeing of our students underpins everything we do at The Hereford Church of England Academy and the applicant will be expected to support and develop this.
Full details can be found in the Job Description and Person Specification.
What We Offer:
A busy and enjoyable place to work, where there is a growing team of friendly colleagues that serve an increasing number of students
Use of The Academy's modern and welcoming facilities (including free gym and onsite car parking)
