Admissions Assistant (International)

Full time - All Year Round | From £30,000 per annum Start date: As soon as possible Application deadline 5pm on Wednesday 19th August 2026. Interviews will take place w/b 24th August 2026. At Monkton Combe School, admissions is about people, not paperwork. We are looking for a warm, confident, organised and proactive Admissions Assistant to join our ambitious team on a permanent basis. This role is for someone who loves building relationships and guiding overseas families through one of the most important decisions of their lives. More sales-minded and relationship-driven than purely administrative (think phone rather than email), you will also support our UKVI visa-sponsorship processes, with full training provided. In addition, you will be the first point of contact for our international agents, so building warm, genuine relationships with them is crucial. Attention to detail is vital, as is the ability to pivot when no two days are the same. What this role is about: As the reassuring constant for international families exploring Monkton Prep and Senior Schools, you will build rapport with parents, pupils and recruitment agents from initial enquiry through to joining. Key Responsibilities: Drive the Admissions Pipeline: Warmly respond to enquiries, keep families engaged via phone and email, diligently track progress in our database and ensure families have everything they need to support their admissions journey. Create Brilliant Visit Experiences: Book and tailor bespoke school visits, welcome families on arrival, arrange staff/pupil meetings and follow up promptly. Guide Applications: Manage registrations, request reports / references, coordinate entrance tests, interviews, and scholarship processes and liaise with key school staff. Agent Management: Act as the first point of contact for our international agent network, build relationships, maintain database records / contracts, regularly update our British Boarding Schools Network profile and gather data u
