ABOUT TRAIN
TRAIN is a youth work charity based in South Oxfordshire. We support young people aged 10 to 18 in Didcot, Wallingford and the surrounding areas, especially those who are under-served.
Young people in our communities are facing complex challenges. Mental health struggles, pressures at school, family instability and the impact of poverty can leave them feeling isolated or overlooked. Too often, they don’t have access to the right support at the right time. TRAIN exists to change that. We offer trusted relationships with adults outside positions of authority, safe spaces where young people can be themselves, and opportunities to grow in confidence, make positive choices and feel part of their community.
ABOUT THE ROLE
This is a key support role in a small, values-driven charity. While most people know TRAIN for its youth work, the smooth running of our organisation depends on good systems, clear admin and reliable behind-the-scenes support. That’s what this role is about.
As Charity Support Officer, you’ll take care of the day-to-day admin that keeps us organised, while also supporting projects and events that help TRAIN grow. Some responsibilities are regular — such as finance processing, HR and volunteer onboarding, responding to enquiries and keeping records accurate. Others will vary week to week, from preparing a funder report to liaising with contractors on a website update or helping coordinate the Didcot Youth Festival.
We’re looking for someone who is organised, adaptable and comfortable juggling different tasks. You won’t be expected to lead major projects or make big decisions, but you will be the first port of call for the small, steady tasks that make a big difference. If you enjoy variety, value attention to detail, and want to play a part in supporting life-changing youth work, this role could be a good fit.
This is a part-time role of 15 hours per week, which can be worked flexibly. The role is based in Didcot or Wallingford with hybrid working. We expect at least some office time each week, but for exceptional candidates, we will consider a fully remote arrangement.
SALARY AND BENEFITS
- Salary: £26,403–£28,142 FTE, pro-rated, depending on experience
- Contract: Permanent, part-time (15 hours per week)
- Annual leave: 25 days plus bank holidays (pro rata)
- Pension: 3% employer contribution
- Flexible working: We’re happy to consider various flexible working arrangements, including hybrid working, fully remote, term-time only and job shares. We can also be flexible about the exact number of hours and how they are worked during the week.
- Professional development: Tailored learning and training opportunities
- Wellbeing: Access to an employee assistance programme with mental health and wellbeing support
- Culture: Supportive, collaborative team with regular catch-ups and shared learning
JOB DESCRIPTION
Core (day-to-day focus)
- Communications and enquiries – be the first point of contact for general enquiries via email and social media, ensuring timely and professional responses.
- Project coordination and events – Coordinate various ad hoc projects (e.g. website refresh, new systems) and provide support for events such as the Didcot Youth Festival.
- HR and volunteer support – coordinate onboarding for staff and volunteers, including references, DBS checks and inductions.
- Office and building liaison – help keep the Didcot youth centre running smoothly by liaising with the landlord/service manager and handling facilities needs.
- Team support – provide admin support across the CEO, staff and trustees, including scheduling, minute-taking and document preparation.
Important (regular, but secondary to the above)
- Finance administration – support the CEO and our bookkeeper with tasks such as processing invoices, expenses, payments and payroll information.
- Data and monitoring – keep records up to date (attendance, impact data, safeguarding logs) for accurate reporting.
- Comms basics – work with the Fundraising and Communications Coordinator to update the website, draft newsletters and prepare supporter updates.
- Database and records – maintain supporter, volunteer and young people’s contact details.
- Policies and procedures – keep master copies organised and flag review dates.
- Health & safety admin – support with risk assessments, building checks and first aid supplies.
Occasional (as needed)
- Fundraising support – assist with funder reports, donor thank-yous and admin for community events.
- Safeguarding admin – support the Designated Safeguarding Lead with record-keeping and DBS renewals (admin only).
- Governance support – assist with trustee papers, annual returns and filings.
- Supplies and logistics – order office supplies, consumables and manage petty cash/card reconciliation.
- IT and systems – liaise with IT suppliers on logins, backups or new staff accounts.
- Insurance/licensing renewals – track renewal dates and ensure processes are followed.
ABOUT YOU
We don’t expect you to have experience in every area of this role — we know people pick up skills in different ways. What matters most is that you’re organised, reliable and keen to support the team.
Essential qualities
- Organised and detail-focused, able to keep systems and records tidy.
- Good communicator, confident in responding to emails, calls and enquiries in a professional and friendly way.
- Comfortable juggling different tasks and adapting to what’s needed week by week.
- IT literate, with good working knowledge of Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook).
- Able to work independently but also collaborate well as part of a small team.
- Motivated by making a difference for young people through the support you provide.
- Satisfactory Enhanced DBS check (we will arrange this before you start).
Desirable qualities
- Experience of charity administration, finance or HR processes.
- Familiarity with database/CRM systems or monitoring tools.
- Experience coordinating volunteers or supporting events.

About working for us
This is a fast-paced and growing organisation that is really committed to making a difference. Being a part of our team is being part of a thriving, positive, dynamic, successful, and welcoming community that is making an impact.

About us
Pancreatic cancer is a tough one but we're taking it on. It is tough to diagnose, tough to treat, and tough to research. For too long this disease has been side-lined. We want to make sure that everyone affected by it gets all the help they need. Together we are taking on pancreatic cancer. Underpinning this vision are our three values:
- Courageous
- Collaborative
- Compassion
We cannot achieve our vision without employing people who are committed to our vision, strategy, and values.
At Pancreatic Cancer UK (PCUK) our ambition is to create an inclusive working environment that reflects the communities and audiences that we engage with and where everyone can be their true selves, where they feel respected, championed, heard, and supported. We want our workforce to achieve their potential, understand their contribution and feel proud of their impact by creating a culture and organisation that is genuinely inclusive by advancing equality, diversity, inclusion, and belonging through our policies and practices.
We believe diversity drives great outcomes by encouraging the different points of view that come from a diverse workforce. We want to hear from and engage with people whose experience of dealing with this disease may be very different depending on their individual circumstances and background. We can think of no better way to do this than by making sure this role fully represents our intent; therefore, we are especially keen to consider applications from suitable applicants who consider themselves to be in areas that appear underrepresented within the charity sector.
Safeguarding
PCUK is committed to safe and fair recruitment processes that safeguard and protect those we work with, support and serve. We make sure all our staff are selected, vetted (DBS/Criminal record checks where appropriate), trained, and supervised fairly and to a high standard so that they can provide safe, effective and compassionate care. Where we work with volunteers, we extend the same support in order to ensure that they are working within our ethos and standards.
Hybrid-working:
Our London office is a place to connect, collaborate and celebrate with colleagues, we recognise that flexibility around where you work is just as important. We are currently working hybrid with a minimum of 2-3 days in the office. This is an office based role where you may be required to be in the office more frequently to attend activities and meetings depending on the needs of the role.
