Administrator

Are you highly organised, people-focused, and looking for a role where your skills really make a difference?

Join the team at the Buckingham Archdeaconry Office, where every day you will play a part in supporting clergy and parishes at the heart of the community.

Position: Administrator (supporting the Buckingham Archdeaconry Office)

Location: Aylesbury, HP17 8RZ

Hours: Part-time, 12 hours per week, to be worked across three 4-hour days. The exact days and times will be agreed with the line manager.

Salary: £9,486.74 (£29,251.18 to £31,501.27 per annum full-time equivalent)

Contract: Permanent

Closing Date: Sunday 5 October 2025

Interview Date and location: HP17 8RZ on Wednesday 15 October 2025

The Role

This is a varied and rewarding part-time role (12 hours per week, worked across three days) at the heart of the Buckingham Archdeaconry Office. You will provide confidential administrative support that helps clergy and parishes feel resourced and supported, while ensuring records, processes, and events run smoothly.

From processing expenses and maintaining key databases to preparing papers for important events and offering a warm welcome to visitors, no two days are ever quite the same.

You will also play a vital role in maintaining accurate and up-to-date clergy and parish records, helping to coordinate and officiate around four annual evening Churchwarden Visitations across various locations in Buckinghamshire, and assisting with wider diocesan projects.

You will be joining a small, supportive team that values flexibility, professionalism, and kindness, with opportunities to learn and grow in a role that truly makes a difference behind the scenes of church life.

As this role thrives on collaboration and efficiency, we would strongly prefer the postholder to be based in the charming Stone office for the full 12 hours per week.

About You

You are an experienced administrator with a meticulous eye for detail and a genuine commitment to helping things run smoothly. You bring proven IT skills, especially in Microsoft Office, and are confident using tools like Outlook, Teams, and Zoom to stay organised and connected.

You are someone who communicates clearly and compassionately, whether by phone, email, or in person, and you are comfortable engaging with people at all levels. You understand the importance of discretion and can be trusted to handle sensitive and confidential information with care.

You thrive in a busy, varied role where priorities can shift, and you are able to manage your time effectively to meet deadlines. Whether working independently or as part of a small, friendly team, you are proactive, reliable, and always ready to lend a hand.

You will bring a welcoming and professional presence to the office, offering hospitality to visitors and support to colleagues. An understanding of, or empathy with, the work of the Church of England would be an advantage, but above all, you will combine efficiency with warmth and take pride in work that supports the wider community.

You do not need to be a practising Christian or have a faith to work with us - around 50% of our staff are not practising Christians but are comfortable with the Christian ethos that underpins our work. However, all our staff do have a desire to make a difference.

• Keep record of enquirers, meeting attendees and memberships of new groups and provide updates at weekly meeting and for Dashboard and HOD reports.

About the role

We’re looking for an experienced and motivated Operations Lead to play a vital role at the heart of our organisation. This is a senior, hands-on post that combines strategic oversight with day-to-day delivery across all core operational functions - including HR, governance, IT and data, finance administration, and internal systems. You will lead the development and continuous improvement of the charity’s infrastructure, ensuring we are well-run, compliant, and set up to deliver real impact. Working closely with the Chief Executive and senior leadership team, you’ll take ownership of the systems and processes that enable our frontline work and support our future growth. The role involves both direct delivery and coordination - particularly through managing relationships with key external service providers in IT, HR, and finance. You’ll ensure these partnerships are effective, responsive, and aligned with the organisation’s needs. There may also be future opportunities to line manage an Operations Assistant or similar role, as the organisation continues to grow and develop its internal capacity. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives on problem-solving, values good systems, and wants to help build a resilient and well-run organisation from the inside out.

About You

You’re an experienced operational professional who takes pride in making organisations work smoothly, efficiently, and compliantly. You have a strong track record of leading core operational functions - from HR and governance to finance processes, IT systems, and internal infrastructure - and you’re confident balancing both day-to-day delivery and strategic oversight. You understand what it means to work in a small charity: you're flexible, solutions-focused, and comfortable rolling up your sleeves when needed. But you also bring a mindset for continuous improvement - always looking for ways to strengthen systems, manage risk, and support others to do their best work. You’re confident working with external providers and partners, ensuring that outsourced support (in areas like HR, IT and finance) is well-managed and meets the needs of the organisation. You communicate clearly, build strong relationships across teams and disciplines, and take a thoughtful, values-led approach to your work. Most of all, you're motivated by the chance to contribute behind the scenes to meaningful change — ensuring that the operational foundations are in place for the charity to thrive and deliver real impact.
