School secretary wanted for an exciting and versatile position at 30 hours per week.

We hope you are our new colleague

We hope that you, as our new colleague, thrive in being an important part of the school's everyday life and want to make a difference for both students, parents and staff.

You may be the type who naturally welcomes people, creates calm around you and makes things run smoothly. You like helping others, and you know that even small things can have a big impact for those on the other side of the counter, the phone or the email.

It means a lot to us

It means a lot to us that you want to be part of our school and the community we create every day for everyone at Birkholmskolen. As school secretary you are much more than an administrative employee. You are often the first person people meet, the one who helps when something needs to be solved, and the one who contributes to daily life for students, staff and parents.

We are therefore not only looking for a skilled secretary, but a colleague who has heart in the work and who wants to help create a school where everyone feels seen, heard and welcome. Experience from the school sector is an advantage, as you will have a central role in the school's daily administration and be in contact with students, parents and staff.

About the position

We are looking for a dedicated and independent school secretary for a 30-hour position with start date after agreement.

As a school secretary, you are the school's administrative hub and often the first person, students, parents and partners meet. You will work closely with the school leadership and other staff and help ensure a well-functioning school day.

Your tasks

Tasks will include, among others

• Daily administration and secretarial support
• Telephone and email handling
• Student administration
• Coordination of meetings and calendar management
• Preparation of letters, minutes and various documents
• Administrative tasks related to the student area
• Invoice handling and lighter financial tasks
• Contact with parents, students, staff and external partners
• You will be involved in the school's financial administration and will be trained in relevant financial tasks. Experience with finance and/or the school sector is an advantage but not a requirement. You will work closely with the school secretary and the principal on the task

About you

We imagine that you

• are happy to be the person that students, parents and staff meet with a smile when they need help or guidance.
• have a natural desire to provide good service and contribute to everyone feeling welcome and well received.
• can create structure and overview, even when there are many balls in the air, and the day's plans change along the way.
• work independently and take responsibility for your tasks, while valuing collaboration with colleagues and management.
• are curious about new digital solutions and confident working in different administrative systems.
• articulate yourself clearly and kindly, both in writing and speaking with others.
• are thorough and understand the importance of correct handling of information and administrative processes.
• have a positive approach to everyday life and meet challenges with a solution-oriented energy.

Personally we value that you

• are trustworthy and discreet in handling confidential information.
• are proactive and see possibilities rather than limitations.
• have a positive attitude to change and new tasks.
• are robust and thrive in an environment where no day is the same.
• are committed to creating the best framework for the daily work of students, staff and the school.

In addition, we hope that you

• want to be an active part of the school's community and contribute to a good atmosphere at the workplace.
• meet others with respect, presence and good humor.
• are flexible and see value in the fact that no two days at a school are the same.
• have an eye for both small details and the larger contexts that make the school day work for students, staff and parents.

We are not necessarily looking for someone who can do everything from day one. The most important for us is that you want to make a difference, are engaged in your work and want to be part of a strong community where we help each other and lift together.
