At NEON, we know that you can’t separate the external work of the organisation from the internal work. They are so interlinked and interdependent that they both have to be given priority and resources if we want to achieve high impact. We see them as inseparable. 

So the purpose of this role is to support NEON achieving its mission by ensuring things are running smoothly:

• day-to-day through running some of our core systems and processes and being responsive to team needs

• in the long-term by helping to embed a progressive culture and working on operational projects

Key Responsibilities: 

1. Overseeing tech systems and hardware - website management, Mobilize, Nationbuilder, GDrive, Slack & other communication channels, laptops, mobiles, printers, and meeting tech & peripherals - and provide technical support to staff as well as collaborating with our external IT support providers;

2. Overseeing day to day running of the office, managing office supplies including first aid and ensuring accessibility as well as supporting hybrid working needs;

3. Supporting GDPR compliance - being the point of contact with our external advisor, supporting data champions in the hubs and managing GDPR changes; 

4. Working with the People & Ops Manager to run excellent people processes for the lifecycle of our staff from recruitment and induction to offboarding;

5. Participate in Operations projects, for example IT review & optimisation, GDPR review or programme support review;

6. Managing logistics for board & other meetings, team away days and retreats, other NEON events and other ad hoc team support, in particular for the EDs - booking meeting rooms, sorting out meeting tech or ordering food;

7. Monitor organisational accounts including generic email accounts and NEON networks;

8. Running delivery of an ops programme with the whole ops team - currently this is ops peer support network but with ambitions to expand to a formal programme;

9. Play an active part in the whole NEON team, contributing to organisation-wide plans.

Who you are:

1. You care about organisational culture and people and have some experience in this role that you want to build on. You are committed to improving conditions & processes for the benefit of your colleagues and the wider movement. 

2. You have experience dealing with people in different capacities, both internally and externally, on a day to day basis, and build strong working relationships.

3. You have the skills and drive to do day-to-day people & ops tasks listed above and want to do them as a regular part of your job. You see this as important work in itself, not just a stepping stone to other parts of NEON (though you are also keen to learn about all aspects of NEON’s work) This includes doing logistics (venue bookings, booking travel for 40+ people, organising catering etc), and “facilities” work like keeping our office running well and ensuring our team have the equipment they need to work well. 

4. You are experienced with using a range of IT and tech and are happy to learn new apps and new bits of hardware, so that you can get all of your IT tasks done well, and teach the team how to use things whether that’s updating our website, helping the team to use Slack as well as possible, or finding a new solution for hybrid working

5. Able to flex between longer term projects, regular cycle work and responsive requests - you are great at being self-motivated in order to push longer projects forward over weeks or months, as well as getting daily or weekly operational tasks done. But you can also shift your workload to turn things around on a day when it’s important.

6. You are proactive, well-organised and feel empowered to solve problems yourself when they come up (sometimes described as an “ownership mindset”), as well as balancing this with asking for help when you need it

7. Excellence is important to you and it shows in your work. Whatever you do, you do it to a high standard. To you, it doesn’t matter whether that’s making sure our office plants are all watered, or coordinating all of the logistics for one of our flagship programmes, it will be done excellently and to deadline

8. A great communicator and you know that good communication is really important to the type of work you do - you’ll be happy to use our internal comms systems (Slack, Google Suite, Asana) to keep everyone in the loop on your work, and you’ll do the same for participants on our programmes via email and phone

9. You’re willing to continuously learn and grow - you have growing levels of self-awareness and emotional intelligence, including around your own power and identity and how that means you relate to others. As a result, you’ll give and receive feedback from others well (or be willing to learn and change) and learn to give feedback well too)

10. Committed to NEON’s purpose of building the power strength of movements for social, economic and environmental justice, and to learning how to align your actions with the values of NEON: solidarity; generosity and respect and our commitment to anti-oppression
