Job description

*OPERATIONS SUPPORT OFFICER*

About us 

The Early Education and Childcare Coalition unites the voices of parents, children, providers, early years professionals and the wider business community, working together for investment and reform of early education and childcare in England. 

We believe that we all benefit from a well-functioning early education system and we all have a role to play in ensuring it works for children, parents and the economy.

We are backed by some of the most high-profile campaign and research organisations in the UK. Our members include early years provider membership bodies, parent campaign groups, early childhood experts, trade unions, the business lobby, anti-poverty campaigners and NGOs. Together, we use our collective voice and research to build public and political support for early education and childcare.

And it’s worked. Thanks to the dedication of our members, early years is now one of the top six priorities for the new government’s Plan for Change, but our work isn’t done – we have an ambitious agenda to ‘rescue and reform’ the system, ensuring that: 

  • every child can access high-quality education and care that their parents can afford and that will support them to thrive 

  • every provider is funded fairly for the places they offer 

  • every early years professional is rewarded and recognised for the skilled work they do 

This is an exciting time to join the Coalition. We have experienced significant growth over the last two years and with early years firmly on the political agenda, we expect this to continue.

We need an Operations Support Officer to support the team with day-to-day logistics covering general administration, finance and communications. Our hope is that this role will evolve and the successful candidate will continue to progress within this growing and impactful organisation. 

About the role  

  • Hours: 15 hours per week spread across the week.

  • Duration: One-year contract, renewed subject to funding.

  • Location: Home-working. We are a fully remote organisation, and this role can be based anywhere in England as all meetings are held online.

  • Salary: £29,000 - £33,000 per annum FTE (£11,600 - £13,200 pro-rata). 

We work flexibly and it won’t come as a surprise to you that we understand the challenge of having caring commitments. We trust you to manage your time, but as a minimum requirement, we expect you to be available on Thursday mornings for our staff meeting. As a remote team this helps us to stay in touch and connect. 

This role is initially offered on a one-year fixed term basis which we expect to renew in line with funding and is offered at 15 hours per week spread across four days per week during typical working hours. If you have an alternative preferred working pattern, please speak to us and we would be happy to see if we can make it work. 

For the last two years, the Coalition has been incubated by the Women’s Budget Group, the UK’s leading feminist economic think tank. Our growth means that we are now ready to spin out into a separate and independent legal entity. That means that your employment contract will initially be with WBG on behalf of the Coalition but will then transfer across to the newly constituted organisation. This won’t change your role, your terms or your pay, but we want to tell you now. We are happy to answer questions at interview about that. 

What you can expect to be doing 

  • Organising regular online and in-person internal and external meetings 

  • Recording and circulating meeting notes and minutes 

  • Managing our shared inbox and responding to general inquiries 

  • Working with the Deputy Director to update key policies and procedures 

  • Updating staff, contractors and/ or partners on new or changing internal procedures and deadlines 

  • Maintaining our online filing systems

  • Supporting event planning and management

  • Assisting with general finance administration including recording expenditure and logging invoices and expenses for payment 

  • Posting prepared content across our social media channels 

  • Helping to edit and send our monthly newsletter 

About you 

You will be a highly organised individual with great attention to detail. Ideally you will have experience in a similar, varied administrative role supporting a small remote or hybrid team in a fast-paced environment. 

Importantly, you will be able to work independently, managing multiple demands and competing priorities. You’ll work closely with our Deputy Director to support the organisation as it develops, helping to improve internal procedures and delivering high quality administrative support across the team and our project work. 

This role would suit someone looking for a part-time role carried out during school hours. 

Person specification

  • Highly organised individual with experience of providing day-to-day administrative support to a team, organisation or senior individual 

  • Experience of managing diaries and shared inboxes 

  • Proven ability to work flexibility supporting a small team in a fast-paced environment 

  • Experience of supporting online and in-person meetings and events 

  • High level of computer literacy and familiarity with Microsoft Office, Teams and Zoom 

  • Good attention to detail and proof-reading skills 

  • Comfortable with remote-working with the ability to self-manage when necessary 

  • Familiar with social media and scheduling content across different channels 

Desirable 

  • Good understanding of the challenges facing the early education and childcare sector 

  • Experience of organising webinars and events 

  • Experience of supporting finance administration for a charity or non-profit organisation 

  • Confident using Canva, Eventbrite and Google Workspace

  • Experience editing and sending out newsletters 

The application process 

Please apply with CV and cover letter (no more than two pages) by the listed closing date. No agencies please. 

The EECC is committed to equity, diversity and inclusion. We use anonymous recruiting during the application process and we use positive action under section 159 of the Equality Act in relation to disability or race. This means that if we have two candidates of equal merit in our process, we will seek to take forward the disabled or Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic candidate in order to diversify our staff team. 

We regret that our small team does not have capacity to respond to unsuccessful applicants individually.
