Why Access Social Care Exists
Everyday millions of older and disabled people are denied the social care they need. Most local authorities can’t meet the growing demand for care, none are confident they can meet their legal duties in the future. This affects all of us, we will all need social care at some point.
We all have a right to hold public bodies to account. But most of us cannot afford lawyers so rely on legal aid. The 77% drop in community care legal aid cases since 2010 means we have nowhere to turn. Without access to justice, our rights do not exist. The rule of law is broken.
What we do
Access Social Care provides free legal advice and information for people with social care needs, helping achieve a better quality of life. We work with communities to increase knowledge of the law and our rights. We highlight the gap left by cuts to Legal Aid and provide advice for those who can’t afford it.
With a 98% success rate, our network of lawyers and barristers ensure fair access to justice when things go wrong. We collaborate with social services whilst ensuring legal obligations are met. We are working towards a future where social care is adequately funded, and we all get the support we need.

Our current administrator is progressing to a new role managing relationships with our volunteers and with partner schools, and we are rercuiting to fill her role.
Background - Number Champions
We set up Number Champions in 2018 to transform the lives of children in state primary schools who struggle with numeracy or lack confidence in maths. We employed our first staff member, our Head of Operations (HoO), in 2022 and our second, an administrator, in 2023..
We are the only charity systematically working in-person with young children in our field. Early support will put children on track to achieve their full life potential in a world where some fluency with maths is an essential building block. Success in this one area can increase their self-esteem and their involvement in education as a whole.
Now in our sixth year, we are working across 14 London boroughs in 32 partner schools, with over 110 In-School Volunteers supporting more than 300 children. We plan to increase these numbers each year. Our medium-term vision is to expand across London, while maintaining the highly positive impact we have achieved to date.
We are proud to have received two national awards last year recognising the work of our volunteers, and we are currently shortlisted for a 2024 award.
Everyone at Number Champions is passionate about improving children’s educational and life chances.
The Administrator role
Our HoO has taken the lead in developing the charity and in giving us the capacity to expand further while maintaining quality of delivery. The administrator reports to the HoO and manages the bulk of the administration processes of the charity.
The role is for an equivalent of 2 days a week, during school term-time only. It will be almost all remote, although you will be expected to attend occasional meetings in Central London (or possibly North London if that is more convenient for you).We therefore are looking for candidates living in Greater London as this gives maximum flexibility for both the employee and the charity.
We intend the role to be permanent, but we are offering an 11-month contract September to July pending confirmation of funding.
Impact on the organisation
You will take on key responsibilities for administration and for contact with different groups of stakeholders. In a small professional team, you will have the opportunity to suggest ideas and to influence the development of the charity.

- Manage the administration processes of onboarding volunteers and schools
- Gather, capture, and maintain the charity’s data in our management system
- Communicate with volunteers and with office and finance staff at partner schools
- Raise invoices

- Provide occasional cover for other staff, as required
- Other activities as required from time to time to support the HoO, SRM, and charity.
Required skills and experience
- Administrative or professional background
- Attentiveness to accuracy
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office (and knowledge of Google Suite would be advantageous)
- Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to build productive working relationships remotely with staff, volunteers, and schools
- Good time management skills and the ability to prioritise
- Commitment to the mission of the charity to help young children with maths.
Basic bookkeeping experience is desirable but not essential.
Benefits
25 days holiday plus 8 bank holidays, prorated for a 2-day-a-week role.
(Although the role is for only 39 weeks a year we will pay you for 33 days annual holiday reduced only by 2/5 for working 2 days a week. This increases your take home pay by about 4% compared to also reducing holidays by 39/52 for weeks worked.)
Employer’s contribution to pension of 3%.

- Agreement to all policies and procedures of the charity.
