Job title: Team Coordinator and Executive Assistant

Working hours: 28 hours per week

Salary: £24,000 a year (this is equivalent to a full-time salary of £30,000 a year)

Who we are?

At London Funders we are at the heart of a great network of over 170 member organisations, focused on funding in London.  This includes every local authority in London, City Hall, independent Trusts and Foundations, businesses, social investment organisations and more. Together, our members invest hundreds of millions of pounds every year in civil society through all aspects of London’s life, from arts through to welfare, so that people across our communities can live better lives.  We’re the place where funders come together to connect and collaborate, where ideas are generated and acted on, and where people work to ensure that resources are channelled to the right places.

The Team Coordinator and Executive Assistant role is the glue in the team, who can make things happen and help us to deliver our work to a standard we can all be proud of.  This role is crucial to us in ensuring that everything runs smoothly – from being the friendly first point of contact for the team, helping to manage our diaries so we use our time effectively, and keeping the office running, through to organising the logistics of our events and supporting our work with our members so that we continue to deliver what’s needed for London.
