This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in taking the Learned Society of Wales forward: ensuring we are operating at our very best – as an effective, well-governed and professional organisation – so that we can deliver our ambitious strategy to benefit Wales.  Our Operations Assistant will provide invaluable support to the Operations, Finance and Governance team to ensure the smooth running of our organisation.

This post would suit a proactive, organised and detail-focussed person who would enjoy a varied role supporting, and being part of, a dynamic team.

About the role:

Behind every well run service is someone making sure the details never get missed. As a Housing Administrator, you’ll provide the reliable, responsive support that helps our accommodation services run smoothly and enables frontline teams to focus on supporting people experiencing homelessness and mental health challenges.

Working across three mental health accommodation services in Camden and Barnet, you’ll be a central point of support for managers and colleagues. Although you’ll work behind the scenes, the people living in our services will remain at the heart of what you do; because accurate records, well managed repairs and responsive administration all contribute to residents receiving safe, consistent and high quality support.

Your day to day work will be varied. You’ll keep databases accurate, coordinate meetings and staff rotas, prepare reports and help services stay on top of key deadlines and compliance checks. You’ll monitor rents, Housing Benefit and service charges; process invoices and petty cash; track repairs, referrals and empty rooms; check tenancy documentation; and maintain clear, accurate spreadsheets and reports.

This is a role where strong administration has a visible impact. By keeping information accurate, spotting issues early and bringing order to competing priorities, you’ll help create safe and effective services that residents and staff can rely on. You’ll join a supportive organisation where you can strengthen your skills, take on new challenges and continue developing your career.

The postholder will be expected to work across all three sites, spending part of their working time at each location. There may also be some opportunity to work from home, depending on service needs and the tasks being completed.

About you:

• You’re a natural organiser who enjoys bringing structure to busy services and making sure important details never get missed.
• You’re confident using Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, and can turn data from spreadsheets and systems into clear, useful reports.
• You communicate warmly and professionally with residents, colleagues and external partners, even when priorities are moving quickly.
• You take ownership of your workload, balance competing deadlines and spot what needs following up before it becomes a problem.
• You understand that accurate, confidential and responsive administration plays a vital role in helping residents receive safe, consistent and high-quality support

About us:

We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up. 

We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own. 

Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable. 

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.

We're looking for a brilliant Office Manager who is highly organised, tech savvy, friendly and, above all, someone with very high standards who gets things done. You'll take real pride in making sure our offices and shared spaces are immaculately presented, professional, welcoming and running brilliantly at all times.

This isn't a role where you'll spend your day waiting for tasks to land in your inbox. We need someone proactive who notices what needs attention, finds solutions and makes things happen.

You'll build strong relationships across the organisation and with our external suppliers, making sure things are delivered on time, to a high standard and with good value for money.

About the Role

You'll take responsibility for the smooth day-to-day running of our office operations and help ensure colleagues have the environment, equipment, systems and support they need to do their jobs brilliantly.

You'll oversee office operations across our Milton Keynes and Northampton sites and act as a central point of coordination for facilities, IT support, suppliers, equipment, reception and general office administration. 

This is a busy, hands-on role at the heart of YMCA South Midlands. You'll be the person who keeps things running smoothly behind the scenes: making sure our offices are organised, our systems work, our staff & visitors have what they need and problems are dealt with quickly and effectively.

No two days will be the same. One minute you might be sorting an IT issue or organising equipment for a new starter, the next you'll be coordinating a contractor, improving an office process, supporting a staff event or making sure our reception and shared spaces are running brilliantly.

We're looking for someone who loves being organised, enjoys working at pace and doesn't need to be chased. You'll naturally spot what needs doing, take ownership and follow things through to completion.

Key Responsibilities

You'll play a key role in keeping YMCA South Midlands organised, efficient and running smoothly, including:

• Overseeing the day-to-day running of our offices, ensuring they are organised, professional, welcoming and operating efficiently.
• Making sure colleagues have the equipment, workspace and resources they need to do their jobs effectively.
• Managing office equipment, IT equipment, phones, printers, stationery, furniture and other supplies.
• Maintaining accurate equipment and asset records and ensuring equipment is properly allocated and accounted for.
• Acting as the main point of contact for our external IT support provider, coordinating requests, chasing outstanding issues and escalating problems when necessary.
• Managing relationships with suppliers and contractors and making sure we receive a high-quality service and good value for money.
• Keeping on top of contracts, renewal dates, insurance administration and other important office deadlines.
• Supporting new starters by making sure their equipment, workspace and induction arrangements are ready for their first day.
• Coordinating DSE assessments and arranging appropriate equipment where required.
• Supporting Health & Safety arrangements, including Fire Marshals, First Aiders, testing, training and the Health & Safety Committee.
• Managing and maintaining our Business Continuity Plan and supporting GDPR and information security requirements.

About You

You'll be someone who genuinely loves organisation and takes pride in making things work well.

You're probably the person who notices when something isn't working and fixes it rather than walking past it. You keep track of the detail, remember deadlines, chase things when needed and don't leave jobs half finished.

You'll be comfortable juggling lots of different priorities and switching quickly between tasks without losing sight of what needs to happen.

You'll be tech savvy and confident learning new systems. You don't need to be an IT expert, but you'll be comfortable troubleshooting straightforward problems, working with external IT support and finding better ways to use technology to make our lives easier.

Just as importantly, you'll be friendly, approachable and warm. You'll deal with colleagues, residents, visitors, contractors and partners, so we want someone who enjoys building relationships and providing brilliant service.

We're looking for someone who is:

• Exceptionally organised with excellent attention to detail.
• Proactive and able to anticipate what needs doing rather than waiting to be asked.
• Someone who takes ownership and gets things done.
• Comfortable working at pace and managing competing priorities.
• Tech savvy and confident using Microsoft Office and learning new systems.
• A natural problem-solver who looks for solutions.
• Reliable and great at following things through to completion.
• Friendly, warm and approachable.
• Confident dealing with suppliers and external contractors.
• A clear and confident communicator.
• Able to work independently without needing close supervision
• Always looking for ways to make systems and processes simpler and better.

You'll ideally have previous experience as an Office Manager, Operations Manager, Executive Assistant, PA, senior administrator or in another role where you've been responsible for keeping a busy organisation running effectively. This reflects the experience requirements in the existing JD. 

Experience of managing a reception function, facilities, suppliers, IT support or Health & Safety would be an advantage, but we're particularly interested in how you work: your organisation, pace, initiative, judgement and ability to make things happen.

Why Join Us?

This is a fantastic opportunity to become a central part of a busy, purpose-driven organisation.

You'll have the opportunity to:

• Make a visible difference to how our organisation operates every day.
• Create a brilliant working environment for our colleagues.
• Improve systems and introduce smarter ways of working.
• Work with people across the whole organisation.
• Take genuine ownership of your area rather than simply completing a list of tasks.
• Join a friendly, supportive team where your ideas and initiative will be welcomed.
• Work for an organisation making a meaningful difference to young people and communities.
