• Audit preparation.
• Financial controls.
• Cloud accounting systems (Xero experience is highly desirable).
• Leading change and improving systems.
• Supporting non-finance managers.
• Working collaboratively with senior leaders and Trustees.

Most importantly, you’ll be someone who enjoys solving problems, embracing technology and helping organisations grow.

Join Small Steps Project as our Executive Assistant 

Are you someone who loves bringing order to busy days, keeping people connected and making things happen behind the scenes?

We're looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant to join the Small Steps Project team and become the operational heartbeat of our award-winning international children's charity.

This is far more than a traditional Executive Assistant role.

You'll work closely with our Managing Director, Board of Trustees, project teams and volunteers, helping to keep the charity running smoothly while supporting fundraising, governance, operations, communications and events.

One day you could be preparing Board papers, the next coordinating our annual Celebrity Shoe Auction, supporting international projects or helping share the incredible stories that inspire our supporters.

If you're highly organised, naturally proactive and enjoy creating calm in a fast-moving environment, we'd love to hear from you.

What we're looking for

• An experienced Executive Assistant, Operations Manager, Office Manager or someone with similar experience.

• Someone who enjoys variety and thrives on managing multiple priorities.

• A confident communicator with excellent organisational skills.

• Someone who wants to use their skills to make a genuine difference.

What we're offering

• Full-time or part-time considered.

• Hybrid and flexible working arrangements.

• School-friendly hours where possible.

• Job share applications welcomed.

• A supportive, collaborative team.

• A varied role with real responsibility and opportunities to grow.

• The chance to work for an award-winning international charity changing children's lives around the world.

At Small Steps Project, we know that exceptional people don't all follow the same career path or work the same pattern. Our team includes working parents and professionals from a variety of backgrounds, and we're committed to creating a flexible and supportive working environment where people can thrive.

If you're looking for a role where organisation meets purpose, and where every day contributes to lasting change, we'd love to hear from you.

To apply, please send your CV and answer three short questions:

1. Why would you like to join Small Steps Project?

2. What experience would you bring to this role?

3. What excites you most about the opportunity?

Together, every small step creates lasting change.
