Our professional library service is delivered by Lambeth Council, co-funded by Croydon Council; working in close partnership with the library & Council teams. We work in close partnership with library services, statutory & voluntary sector partners, connecting us to multiple communities & deeply rooting us into the heart of South London. Our library hub operates a co-created community programme focusing on sharing & learning, health & wellbeing, venue & performance & outreach activities. We promote equality through information, education, wellbeing & creative programmes that create open access & widen participation. UNLH is managed by the Upper Norwood Library Trust (UNLT - an independent charity), formed in 2012 by local residents & a strategic priority is that we are ‘of’ our community not ‘for’ our community to ensure resident voice is central within the organisation.
We are seeking and experienced administrator to join our team. You will be responsible for the range of administrative tasks across the charity - facilities, visitor support, projects, HR & finance.
Our successful candidate will have excellent planning and organisational skills. They will demonstrate meticulous attention to detail, and be highly efficient as well as very flexible.
We’re seeking someone who is highly proactive and capable of working with, and across, a range of people – inside and outside of UNLT. The roles success depends on delivering competing priorities and projects to different deadlines. This means we’re looking for evidence of well-developed skills in communication (oral and written), negotiation and persuasion.
This is an interesting and varied role, with responsibility for many different areas of governance & service delivery. It is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience and understanding as to how a small charity like UNLT operates.
What would we like…?
Do you have a track record of delivering accurate, reliable, administrative and project support in a fast moving environment?
We are looking for someone with experience of working in a collaborative way to join the Marketing and Brand team as Project Administrator on a 12-month fixed term contract basis. You'll support the day-to-day running of the team by providing effective administration and project planning.
This role is varied and the successful postholder will be responsible for scheduling external and internal meetings, liaising with key internal and external stakeholders, preparing reports, setting agendas and minute taking for meetings and financial administration. You'll also work with the Project Lead to provide project support to achieve implementation of key improvement projects.
We would like you to:
- Support the Marketing and Brand Director and Project Lead with managing project workflow (for example task tracking, updating and delegating tasks), sourcing and collating feedback and reporting as required.

- Competitive annual salary
- Professional development for all staff
- 25 days’ annual leave, plus bank holidays and 'winter shut down’ at the end of December/beginning of January
