Student Attendance and Reception Administrator

The Opportunity
Saint Kentigern College offers education of real depth and breadth for students from Years 7 to 13, within a values-driven community.

We are seeking a friendly, organised and reliable person to join our Student Services team in a fixed term, term time only role through to the final day of the 2026 College year.

This role is intentionally structured to support two key functions within Student Services and offers a natural rhythm to the day.

Mornings (8.00am to 12.00pm)
You will work alongside our Attendance Officer, supporting the accurate recording of attendance for approximately 2,300 students. This involves entering and reconciling data in a reasonably complex student management system and requires strong attention to detail, consistency and focus within time-bound processes.

Afternoons (12.30pm to 4.00pm)
You will be based at Student Reception, providing a welcoming and calm point of contact for students and parents. Afternoons are varied and people-focused, responding to a wide range of student queries and providing general administrative support as needed.

This role suits someone who enjoys a structured, task-focused start to the day and a more dynamic, people-facing afternoon. You will be comfortable working to deadlines, adaptable when plans change, and able to remain calm and helpful in a busy school environment.

The position is 37.5 hours per week, 8.00am to 4.00pm, and is based at the Saint Kentigern College campus in Pakuranga through to Tuesday 8 December 2026. The role operates during College school terms only, with no work scheduled during term breaks.

A position description is available on request.

• Experience with data entry and working with databases
• A high level of accuracy and attention to detail
• Strong organisational and time management skills
• A customer service mindset and approachable manner
• Competency using Microsoft Office
• A proactive and practical approach to problem solving
