Part-Time Personal Assistant (PA) – Two Positions
Companies: Sure Success Learning & Active Minds
Positions Available: 2
Employment Type: Part-Time
Sector: Education, Tuition & Children’s Enrichment
DBS Requirement: Enhanced DBS required


About the Role
Sure Success Learning and Active Minds are growing education and enrichment providers delivering tuition, after-school clubs, holiday programmes and educational activities for children.
As we continue to grow, we are looking for two highly organised, proactive and dependable Part-Time Personal Assistants to support the day-to-day running and development of our organisations.
This is a hands-on role for individuals who can take ownership, anticipate what needs to be done, make sensible decisions, solve problems and confidently move things forward rather than waiting to be given instructions.
As the role involves regular interaction with schools, parents, staff and external partners, candidates must also be presentable, professional and confident in representing our organisations.


Key Responsibilities

  • Support the day-to-day administration and operations of Sure Success Learning and Active Minds.
  • Manage emails, enquiries, bookings and general administration.
  • Communicate professionally with parents, schools, staff, tutors and external partners.
  • Maintain accurate records, registers, spreadsheets and internal systems.
  • Coordinate staff, schedules, meetings and operational requirements.
  • Follow up outstanding actions without needing to be reminded.
  • Help organise tuition, after-school clubs, holiday programmes and other provision.
  • Prepare documents, correspondence, invoices and other business materials.
  • Identify problems early and take initiative to find practical solutions.
  • Support new school partnerships, programmes and business growth opportunities.
  • Represent the organisations professionally during meetings, school visits and interactions with parents and partners.
  • Keep management informed of important matters while independently handling routine issues.
  • Take ownership of assigned projects and ensure they are completed accurately and on time.

Who We’re Looking For
We are particularly interested in candidates who are:
Decisive – able to assess situations, make sensible decisions and move matters forward.
Proactive – sees what needs doing and acts rather than waiting for instructions.
Highly organised – capable of managing multiple priorities, deadlines and responsibilities.
Initiative-driven – comfortable finding solutions, suggesting improvements and taking ownership.
Growth-minded – interested in helping our organisations develop, improve and expand.
Presentable and professional – maintains a smart, appropriate appearance and professional manner when representing the organisations.
Confident – comfortable communicating with school leaders, teachers, parents, staff and external partners.
Reliable and accountable – follows through on commitments and takes responsibility for their work.
Detail-focused – able to maintain accurate records and identify mistakes before they become problems.
Adaptable – comfortable working within growing organisations where priorities can change quickly.


Essential Requirements

  • Excellent written and spoken English.
  • Strong organisational and time-management skills.
  • Smart, presentable and professional appearance and manner.
  • Confident and professional interpersonal skills.
  • Confident using email, Microsoft Office/Google Workspace and spreadsheets.
  • Strong administrative and communication skills.
  • Ability to work independently and prioritise workload.
  • Professional approach when dealing with children, parents and schools.
  • Enhanced DBS clearance is required due to the nature of our work with children.

Experience within education, tuition, childcare, schools, administration or business operations would be beneficial. However, attitude, initiative, professionalism, reliability and the ability to take ownership are particularly important to us.


What Success Looks Like
We want PAs who can be given a task, responsibility or problem and be trusted to understand what needs to happen, organise the necessary people or information, make appropriate decisions and see it through to completion.
These are part-time positions, but we are looking for individuals who want to become an important part of the organisations and grow alongside Sure Success Learning and Active Minds as we continue to expand.
