IANL Academy is dedicated to delivering high-quality Islamic education to the local community, preserving and passing on Islamic teachings and values for generations to come. As the Academy continues to grow, we are looking for a Lead Administrator to take charge of its day-to-day running and be the friendly, reliable first point of contact for our parents.
This is a role with real reach. The Lead Administrator is the person families turn to with a question, the person teachers rely on for resources, and the person who keeps our records, systems and fees in good order. If you are organised, warm with people, and want your working hours to contribute to something lasting, we would be glad to hear from you.

- Care and discretion when handling student and family information
- The ability to work independently and prioritise sensibly
- Experience in a school, madrasah, charity or office administration setting (desirable, not essential for the right candidate)
