Charity People are working with a modern, welcoming Church of England church located in London, just moments from the tube and excellent bus links. The church serves a vibrant local community and is home to a dedicated staff team including clergy, children's and youth workers, communications, and worship staff, alongside a valued network of volunteers.

The church is entering an exciting period of development, with new team members joining the organisation. As a result, there is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Office Manager to help strengthen the foundations of the office and create sustainable systems that will support future growth.

You do not need to be religious to apply, but you will have empathy with the values of the charity and church sector and be comfortable engaging with members of the public in a church environment.

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys making improvements, creating structure, and bringing order to busy environments. We are looking for a proactive and organised individual who can quickly assess what is working, identify what is not, and take ownership of implementing practical solutions.

The successful candidate will oversee the day-to-day operation of the church office while conducting a full review of office systems, processes, and procedures. You will create clear documentation, establish best practice, and ensure staff have the tools and guidance they need moving forward.

You will manage the daily operation of the church office and provide administrative support to the wider team and act as the first point of contact for telephone, email and in-person enquiries, ensuring a professional and welcoming experience for members of the public and visitors.

Key duties include supporting the implementation of systems, manage invoices and records, and creating clear guidance documents. Also to review, repair, and improve office systems, processes, and administrative procedures.

You will be an experienced Office Manager who has successfully shaped, improved, and organised office functions in previous roles. You will be confident working autonomously, making decisions and managing priorities without extensive supervision. Strong communications skills, and a collaborative approach to working with staff, volunteers, and the wider community is key for this role.
