Commonweal is an independent charity, with a small core staff team of 9, overseen by a voluntary Board of Trustees, working to investigate, pilot and champion housing based solutions to social injustice. Using our charitable resources, we provide experts and partner organisations with the opportunity to trial and test new approaches designed to enhance housing equality and justice. Independently evaluating each of our projects we share our experiences, using this learning to inspire new thinking. Through the replication of what works and the lessons from what doesn’t, we influence changes in policy and practice. In addition, we commission other research identifying and spotlighting new areas of housing injustice.

Commonweal owns a small portfolio of properties that are leased to our project partners – charities, housing and support organisations delivering services to people experiencing housing injustice. This role will be central to ensuring that we fulfil our responsibilities as a property owner and that our partners and managing agents meet their property and compliance obligations.

You will maintain oversight of key property compliance requirements, ensuring certificates, inspections and other documentation are in place and up to date, proactively following up outstanding actions and escalating issues where necessary. Working closely with our managing agents, retained surveyor, contractors and project partners, you will help ensure we have an accurate and up-to-date picture of our properties, including repairs and planned works, void properties and those being prepared for occupation.

Commonweal also periodically buys and sells properties as new projects begin and others come to an end. You will provide administrative coordination for these processes, liaising with estate agents, solicitors and other professional advisers and helping to keep actions and deadlines on track.

Alongside our property portfolio, the Office & Property Compliance Administrator will coordinate and deliver the core administration that underpins Commonweal's work.

You will:

• Manage the compliance administration of our property portfolio, maintaining accurate records of compliance requirements, certificates, inspections, key dates and associated documentation.
• Proactively monitor outstanding property actions, repairs and works, liaising with managing agents, our surveyor, contractors and project partners to obtain updates, follow up overdue actions and escalate concerns where necessary.
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date information on the status of our properties, including voids, outstanding works and readiness for occupation, providing reliable information for operational and Board reporting.
• Provide administrative coordination for property acquisitions and disposals, liaising with estate agents, solicitors and other professional advisers and tracking actions through to completion.
• Provide high-quality governance support to our Board of Trustees, including scheduling meetings, collating agendas and papers, circulating Board packs and taking accurate minutes.
• Oversee the smooth running of our office, including IT and supplier contracts and health & safety administration.
• Act as a first point of contact for general enquiries and provide reliable administrative support to the CEO, DCEO and wider team.

We are looking for someone with:

• Strong organisational and time-management skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and deadlines.
• Experience of supporting Boards or committees, including minute-taking.
• Experience of property, housing, lettings or compliance administration, or demonstrable experience of managing detailed records, actions and deadlines within another regulated environment.
• Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to maintaining accurate and reliable information.
• A proactive approach – someone who is comfortable following up outstanding actions, chasing information and identifying when something needs attention or escalation.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Confidence working with suppliers, contractors and other external organisations.
• A collaborative and professional style and the ability to work effectively as part of a small team.

Previous knowledge of property compliance requirements would be an advantage, but we are equally interested in candidates with strong transferable administrative and coordination skills and the ability to develop their property knowledge.

This is a varied and important role at the heart of Commonweal, helping to ensure that our properties, governance and organisational systems are well managed, accurate and compliant, and that colleagues and Trustees have the reliable information they need.

Closing date 22nd September 2026

Join Liver UK at an exciting point in our development.

Liver UK is the national charity for people affected by liver disease and liver cancer. We provide expert information and support, raise awareness, promote prevention and earlier diagnosis, influence policy and ensure the voices of people affected by liver disease are heard.

Following the coming together of the British Liver Trust and Children’s Liver Disease Foundation, we are now Liver UK: one charity supporting people of all ages and with all types of liver disease.

We have strong foundations, an ambitious strategy for 2026–2032 and a clear goal to make liver health a national priority. We are now moving from a period of transformation into one focused on delivery, growth and impact.

We are looking for an experienced, highly organised and confident Senior Administrator to play a central role in helping our organisation run effectively.

The role

This is much more than a traditional administration role.

You will be at the heart of our day-to-day operations, providing high-quality administrative and operational support across Liver UK and working with colleagues at all levels, including our Senior Management Team.

We are looking for someone who enjoys creating structure, improving processes and finding ways to make how we work more efficient and effective. You will manage a varied workload, keep important actions moving, coordinate organisational processes and help ensure agreed deadlines are met.

You will need to be confident and appropriately persistent. You’ll build good relationships with colleagues, while also being comfortable following things up, challenging constructively and having clear and confident conversations about deadlines, priorities and standards.

You will also provide day-to-day supervision and support to our office-based Apprentice, helping them to organise their workload, develop their skills and build confidence in their role.

What you’ll be doing

· Providing senior administrative and operational support across the charity.

· Coordinating meetings, diaries, travel, events and other organisational activity.

· Managing central telephone and shared email services.

About you

You’ll be exceptionally organised, reliable and comfortable taking ownership rather than waiting to be directed. You’ll be able to manage competing priorities, spot what needs to happen next and see tasks through to completion.

Just as importantly, you’ll have the confidence and interpersonal skills to work effectively with colleagues at all levels, combining diplomacy and positive working relationships with appropriate challenge.

You’ll have strong written and verbal communication skills, excellent attention to detail and good IT skills. Experience of databases, CRM systems or similar organisational systems is important, while experience of Raiser’s Edge, the charity sector or a health environment would be an advantage.

Experience of supervising, coaching or supporting another member of staff, apprentice or volunteer would also be valuable.

You’ll enjoy supporting someone early in their career, providing encouragement, clear expectations and constructive feedback to help them build confidence, develop their skills and succeed in their role.

Why Liver UK?

This is an opportunity to join a committed national charity at an important point in its development and to take on a role where strong organisation behind the scenes has a real impact on what the wider charity can achieve.

The Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation UK Branch is looking for a Communications and Programmes Officer to join our small, collaborative London team.

The Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation is an independent charitable foundation established in Portugal in 1956. It is one of the largest European foundations, with headquarters in Lisbon and offices in London (the UK Branch) and Paris. The Foundation's mission is to promote the development of individuals and organisations, through art, science, education, and charity, for a more equitable and sustainable society.

The Communications and Programmes Officer will work with colleagues to support the delivery of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation UK Branch's strategy. This post will help deliver the UK Branch's communications activity and support the UK programme's grant-making and projects.

The UK Branch aims to strengthen arts and civil society ecosystems and emphasises transnational collaboration between Portugal (where the Foundation is headquartered) and the UK. Our grantmaking programme has three focus areas: arts opportunities, NGO capacity-building and climate-health. We fund and support partner organisations working in these areas and directly deliver projects in-line with our programme goals. The UK Branch also collaborates on flagship international initiatives of the Foundation, including the Gulbenkian Prize for Humanity and the Alliance for Socially Engaged Arts.

The appointed person is likely to spend around 50% of time working on communications projects, and 50% on general programmatic work (including research, events, project management, and administration).

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone with around two years of relevant experience looking to extend their skills and responsibilities and develop professionally.

The Foundation has an equal opportunity policy and implements to make this policy fully effective by ensuring that no job applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment on the grounds of age, sex, sexual orientation, religion or belief, disability or race.

Waltham Forest CVS is the borough's independent infrastructure body for the voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise sector. We help local organisations to be well run, well funded and well connected, and we represent the sector's voice to the council, the NHS and other partners.

We are a small team doing a lot. In any given week we might be helping a new group get its governance right, running a network meeting, making the case for the sector with the council, or getting a grant out of the door. That range is what makes the work interesting. It also means the administration has to be solid, because when it isn't, everything else slows down.

This is a hands-on role supporting the Chief Executive and, through her, the rest of the team. You will manage the diary and the inboxes, service our board and sub-committee meetings and take the minutes, keep records and systems in order, help with events and training, and handle the day-to-day office and finance administration. You will be the first voice a lot of people hear when they get in touch with us.

We are looking for someone organised and accurate, who can juggle competing demands and finish things without being chased. You will need sound judgement and real discretion — you will see confidential material — and a straightforward, approachable manner with everyone from a volunteer running a lunch club to a council director. Experience in the charity, private or public sector is welcome but not essential. What matters is that you can run a busy office well and want to do it somewhere the work means something.
