Requirements

What we're looking for

We are not looking for a conventional administrative assistant nor a full-time teacher. We are looking for a hybrid profile: someone with an academic background whose true passion is order, process optimization, and data analysis.
An educational profile that is not motivated by the pigeonholing and rigidity of formal teaching, but rather by the business world related to education.

You are the ideal person if you are as passionate about spreadsheets as you are about education and if you are able to maintain calm and a smile in the vibrant "environment" of a leading school.

Advanced Excel Mastery: (Pivot tables, complex formulas, and data visualization). If you don't find joy in organizing data, this is not the place for you.
Academic Background: Previous experience as a teacher (essential to understand the product and the sector).
Operations Mindset: Ability to see "the forest" and propose improvements in the team's workflows.
Mental Agility and Adaptability: We work in the service sector with 1,000 students during afternoon hours. We need you to know how to prioritize and switch tasks without getting blocked.
"Problem-Solver" Profile: We are looking for someone who brings solutions.
Business Vision: You understand that the school's success depends on customer satisfaction and system efficiency.

Pay & benefits

What you'll get

High-Performance Culture: You will be part of the team at the best school in Spain.
Leadership Philosophy: We believe in empowerment. We will not pay you just for "being there," but for your capacity to "be," to add value, and to resolve.
Possibility of professional growth.
Full-time employment

The role

We are the leading language school in Lugo, with a community of more than 1,000 students.

Our success is no accident: it is the result of a solid operating system and a high-performance team. We are looking for a person who understands that academic excellence is only possible with impeccable data and operations management.

What you'll do

Operations and Data Management (70%): Exhaustive control of invoicing, CRM registrations/cancellations, performance KPI analysis, Excel database management, and administrative support to management.
Stock control and other similar tasks.
Academic Support and Events (30%): Occasional classroom intervention (strategic substitutions), coordination of high-profile and loyalty events, and support for the teaching staff.
Sales: you will be immersed in the world of marketing and sales.
Solution Facilitator: You will be the gear that ensures daily operations flow, pivoting with agility between administrative tasks and attending to unforeseen issues at the center.
