The Royal Ballet School is seeking an administrative employee

Are you passionate about administration and motivated by being part of a traditional yet development-oriented school with a strong artistic environment?

You will become a central part of the school's administration and have broad contact with students, parents, teachers, management, and external partners. Therefore, we are looking for a colleague who thrives with responsibility, works independently and professionally, and sees opportunities rather than limitations.

About you

You are proactive, development-oriented, and motivated by creating structure and good solutions in a daily life with many different tasks. You work independently, take responsibility, and meet colleagues and partners with professionalism, flexibility, and a strong service orientation.

We imagine that you have
