Charities assistant jobs

About CoppaFeel!

CoppaFeel! are the UK’s only youth focused breast cancer awareness charity, and we’re on a mission to get every 18-24 year old checking their chest. We educate people on the signs of breast cancer and encourage them to check their chests monthly, so that if they notice something unusual they are empowered to contact their GP and advocate for themselves.

We do this because when diagnosed early, breast cancer treatments are more effective and survival rates are higher. Early detection can save lives.

Breast cancer does not need to be detected late, and as long as we are here and continue to be supported by people like you, we will do all we can to make sure this doesn’t continue to happen

About Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust (JRCT)

JRCT is a grant-making Quaker Trust that supports people who are passionate about making a positive difference; whether they are advocating for some of the most vulnerable people in our society, promoting nonviolent responses to conflict, or taking steps towards an environmentally sustainable future.

Every year JRCT makes grants for all kinds of charitable work, from grassroots community groups to well-established charities working to build a peaceful and just world. We aim to be a responsive and supportive funder, working to strengthen the hands of people who are tackling the root causes of conflict and injustice.

In 2019, the Trust announced plans to significantly increase annual grant spending to over £10 million per year for the next ten years. The Trust further increased its grant-making in response to the Covid-19 crisis. Since then, we have grown our programme staff team in order to better support increased grant portfolios. 

Having publicly recognised the ways in which the Trust benefited from or contributed to oppressive practices including enslavement, indenture, colonialism, and Apartheid, JRCT has hired a Head of Reparations and made a commitment to a multi-million programme of reparative justice, the first phase of which will take place between 2026 and 2029. 

Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust currently runs five grant programmes: Peace and Security, Rights and Justice, Power and Accountability, Sustainable Future, and Northern Ireland as well as a Grassroots Movements pilot fund.

About the Role

As Executive Assistant, Reparations, this role supports the Head of Reparations and enables the smooth administrative and support aspects of the Head of Reparations’ affairs.

You will support the Head of Reparations in the effective execution of the reparations projects, which will include coordinating project activities, maintaining meticulous project and workplan documentation, managing communication within the reparations team, with the wider JRCT team, and with external stakeholders. Your role will also extend to scheduling and organising meetings, maintaining clear records, and aiding in the organisation of project tasks. You will work in an administrative capacity to ensure that project deadlines are kept and deliverables are met. As the reparations projects will involve extensive work with stakeholders in Africa and thew Caribbean, familiarity with African and Caribbean cultures, as well as relevant multi-lingual and / or multi-cultural competencies will be essential. 

This is a hybrid role requiring in-office attendance once or twice a week. The position is fixed-term until  April 2029, with a salary of £47,814 per annum.

The role is for 35 hours a week, and we are open to flexible working patterns.  We try to schedule meetings to accommodate caring responsibilities. Someone working remotely would be required to come to the York office for up to four days per month and also travel to meetings with some occasional overnight stays.

We are seeking a self-motivated Member Support and Administrative Assistant to play a key role in our friendly team. The successful candidate will liaise with colleagues across the organisation focused on membership, communications, marketing and delivery, and as a result get invaluable insight into these functions. Once established in post the successful candidate will also benefit from our nine-day fortnight working pattern (providing a long weekend twice a month).

Background Information

PSHE (personal, social, health and economic) education is the school curriculum subject that prepares pupils for life and work.  PSHE lessons cover some of the most pressing issues facing young people today including mental and physical health, relationships, staying safe online, economic wellbeing, careers and the importance of equality and diversity.

The PSHE Association is the national body for the subject. A charity and membership organisation, the Association supports a national network of over 50,000 teachers and schools with resources, training and guidance. We work nationally to raise PSHE standards for all children and raise its status on the curriculum. This includes working in partnership with a range of leading charities, government bodies, corporates and other partners. This is an exciting time for us and we are expanding our services to meet growing demand.

Role description

The applicant will be expected to take on a variety of responsibilities associated with supporting our national membership of PSHE education teachers and other professionals. This will include fielding phone and emailed member queries in a timely and friendly fashion and logging queries and activities on our membership database. The role will also include supporting the organisation and administration of the office, including processing memberships and payments, and maintaining and updating our database of contacts, supporting online training event bookings and logistics as well as supporting the team as required.

Please see below for a full Job Description and Person Specification

Terms of Reference

The post is offered on a full time basis, on a permanent contract with a six-month probationary period. The salary will be £28,500.

At the PSHE Association, we believe in a healthy work-life balance. That is why we offer a nine-day fortnight working pattern, giving our team every other Friday off (in other words a long weekend twice a month). We believe this gives employees more time to recharge and more time for what matters to them. This shorter working week benefit (equivalent to 32 hours per week on full pay) kicks in once employees have successfully completed three months of their probationary period, with a standard 35-hour working week in place up until that point. 

Our offices are based in central London, close to Russell Square, and this is where the role will be primarily based alongside some days of the week working from home.

How to apply

To apply please send a CV and covering letter using Charity Job by Monday 8th June at 9AM.

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend an online interview on Monday 15th June with the possibility of a second interview on Thursday 18th June in our London offices.

The cover letter is an important part of the process, and we will not consider any applications without a cover letter attached. This letter should provide an overview and personal reflections about why you meet the criteria and how your skills and experience are applicable. We therefore request that no AI tools are used in its composition.

Permanent role

Are you passionate about animal welfare and love delivering excellent customer service? Do you take pride in your attention to detail and enjoy working with systems and processes? Are you looking for flexibility in your work life? If so, we’d love to hear from you.

At the League Against Cruel Sports, we’re working towards a kinder society where animals are no longer persecuted in the name of ‘sport’. We’re looking for two Supporter Services Assistants to join our friendly and committed Fundraising team.

This is a vital role that supports our incredible supporters — whether they’re making a donation, updating their details or asking about our campaigns. You'll be the first point of contact for many of them, helping to deliver a warm, professional and efficient experience by phone, email and post.

You'll also support the team with accurate data entry, payment processing and the day-to-day running of our supporter database, helping to ensure every gift and action is recorded and acknowledged appropriately.

Our motto is “dialogue, not monologue” — we value every conversation with our supporters, and you'll be instrumental in making sure they feel heard, appreciated and part of our movement.

Key responsibilities:

· Responding to supporter enquiries by phone, email and post

· Processing donations and setting up direct debits

· Maintaining and updating supporter records using our CRM systems

· Sending thank you letters and supporter communications

· Supporting data imports, exports and database hygiene

· Handling supporter complaints with care and professionalism

What we’re looking for:

· Experience in customer or supporter care

· Excellent written and verbal communication skills

· Confidence using databases and Microsoft Office

· Strong attention to detail and a high level of accuracy

· Empathy for supporters and a commitment to our cause

· A calm, friendly and solutions-focused approach

Experience with Raiser’s Edge or similar CRM systems is helpful, but not essential – we’ll provide full training.

Why join us?

You’ll be joining a values-driven charity with a long and proud history of campaigning, protecting wildlife and exposing cruelty.

We offer a flexible, supportive working environment with 28 days of annual leave pro rata (in addition to the public holidays and rising with service) and flexible working arrangements.

Additionally, our benefits package includes a generous employer contribution of eight percent towards your pension scheme and discounts on shopping, electronics, hospitality and leisure.

Most importantly, working at the League gives you the opportunity to make a real difference for animals. Find out more about working at the League.

The League Against Cruel Sports is committed to inclusivity and diversity, and we welcome candidates from all backgrounds to apply.

Ready to make a real difference? Don't wait - apply now! We're looking to fill these positions quickly and will be reviewing applications on a rolling basis. To apply, please submit your CV and a covering letter. Together, we can redefine what is acceptable and create a better world for animals.
