Data Administrator Volunteer Roles in Liverpool

Shannon Trust fulfils an unmet need around adult learning, supporting people who’ve fallen through the cracks in formal education.

We know a lot of people have had negative learning experiences in the past, so our programme is designed to be different, with no exams and no classrooms. Our unique, evidence-based Turning Pages reading manuals are used by thousands of learners in prisons and the community to improve reading skills. 

Area administrators are an invaluable part of our team. They provide administrative support to our area coordinators and teams, organising and taking notes in area meetings. They're also an important link in how we evidence the impact of Shannon Trust, prompting and following-up data and monthly reports from our prison volunteers.

We are looking for volunteers who are organised and able to work alone with good IT and admin skills.  Much of the role can take place on any day of the week, and in the evenings, but you will need to be able to attend a daytime area meeting 4 times a year, attend our induction workshops and national area secretaries meetings.

We provide training for the role via e-learning and training sessions which are a mix of live, online and group training.
