REF-212 752

Are you interested in working for a Global Charity that works on peace and safety, gender justice and building self-reliance among women and families. Mothers' Union is a global Christian movement working with people of all faiths and none to develop communities, strengthen families and advocate for change. Our members are active in 83 countries and work tirelessly to serve their communities to build a future where everyone thrives.

We are a diverse and inclusive movement who also welcomes friends and supporters from within and outside of the church structure, together with a host of active volunteers all championing the work we do.

The Role:

This role will cover a wider area of executive support including governance, meeting management, senior leadership team support, managing on-line gatherings, travel management, diary management, correspondence management and relationship management.

The post-holder will be key in supporting the WWP in this, and also, with both WWP and CEO, in mapping out the key events and activities over a 6 year cycle, so that there is a clear structure for the new WWP (and ultimately successor to CEO ) to come into and work with. They will also assist the CEO in “standard agenda planning” for the board, for example, the induction of the new Board in early 2025.

Whilst the role is for 3 days per week, ideally this would be flexible, with the individual working more days at certain times (for example during the Board week) and less at quieter times.

MU is a small team, (about 25) and there is an expectation that all will show flexibility in helping out on areas not explicit in their role descriptions, when time and their expertise and ongoing workload allow

Who we are looking for

The ideal candidate should be proficient in handling the Microsoft suite, zoom, familiarity with handling databases and finance systems. They should be confident in taking minutes in board meetings, experienced in acting as a project manager, able to use a project tool to facilitate planning of schedules for SLT, Board and committees throughout the year, and possess excellent relationship skills, confident to liaise with board members and provincial presidents from around the Globe.

Benefits

• 25 days of annual leave (full time) plus up to 4 days of leave (full time) given at the discretion of Mothers’ Union
• Employer pension contribution of 7%
• Enhanced maternity, paternity and adoption pay
• Two volunteering days and one away day per calendar year
• Enhanced sick pay
• Bereavement leave & Compassionate leave
• Season ticket loan
• Cycle to work scheme
• Employee assistance programme.
• Eye care voucher and an allowance towards glasses.
