Prospectus is delighted to be supporting the UK’s leading public sector trade union, representing over 1.3 million members across public services, private, voluntary, and community sectors, as well as energy services. They provide confidential advice and support to members and their dependants experiencing financial or emotional difficulties, often when they have nowhere else to turn.

Due to an increase in applications for their summer school uniform grants programme, they are seeking a Grants Administrator to join their Casework team on a temporary basis.

In this role, you will be responsible for administering both online and paper-based applications for financial support from members applying through the small grants programme to help cover the cost of school uniforms.

You will also support in reducing turnaround times and assist with a range of administrative duties.

About You:

• Experience in grant giving, casework, or advice/information services
• Strong administrative and organisational skills with excellent attention to detail
• Knowledge of benefits and eligibility criteria is desirable
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office and confidence using systems such as SharePoint

You will be required onsite (Kings Cross/Euston) five days per week during onboarding. After this, a hybrid working model may be considered if you are able to work independently.

CVs will be reviewed on a rolling basis so early applications are strongly encouraged to avoid missing out. If you're interested, please apply ASAP with your CV in Word format.

At Prospectus, we are committed to supporting you throughout your application journey. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and do not discriminate based on age, gender, disability, race, religion, sexual orientation, marital status, or pregnancy/maternity.
