We are seeking a highly organised and systems-savvy Senior Administrator to play a key role in ensuring the smooth operation of our programmes, systems, and records. This role is particularly well suited to someone who enjoys working closely with data, systems, and processes, and takes pride in maintaining accurate, well-structured records that help teams run efficiently. 

A significant part of the role involves working with databases, spreadsheets, and CRM systems, so confidence using Excel (including formulas and data management) is essential. You will be comfortable navigating multiple digital systems and able to quickly learn new platforms, while maintaining high standards of data accuracy and organisation. Experience working with CRMs such as ImpactED, Beacon, Salesforce, or Blackbaud would be advantageous. 

You will be confident working across Microsoft Office 365 beyond Outlook, using tools such as SharePoint, Teams channels, and collaborative data systems to manage information and keep records up to date. The role requires someone who is methodical, detail-oriented, and proactive in keeping systems organised and information accessible. 

This is a 6-month maternity cover position, expected to run from June through November, with the possibility of extension depending on organisational needs and circumstances. 

You will play a key role in ensuring the smooth coordination of our administrative, data management, and operational processes. Joining a highly motivated and committed team of home-based colleagues who are passionate about improving the lives of young people through our specialist youth programmes, you will help ensure that the systems, records, and processes behind our work run efficiently and reliably. 

Your role will focus on maintaining and managing organisational systems and records, supporting programme delivery, and ensuring accurate and up-to-date data across our CRM and impact tracking platforms. You will sit within the operations team and coordinate key operational processes including volunteer and recruitment administration, liaising with external providers, and supporting the logistics and record-keeping of IT equipment and other programme resources. The role also includes general administration, coordination, and governance support to help keep the organisation running smoothly. 

You will be self-motivated and comfortable working remotely while staying closely connected with a collaborative team. Strong organisational skills, attention to detail, and clear communication will enable you to manage competing priorities while maintaining a high level of accuracy and professionalism. 

We welcome applicants whatever your stage in life. If you are returning to the workforce after a period away, or seeking a change of pace, we encourage you to get in touch. Across the team we cultivate a culture of inclusion that respects individual strengths, views, and experiences. We believe that our differences enable us to be a better team, one that makes better decisions, drives innovation, and delivers better outcomes for our young people.
