Admin Officer – Resilient Water Accelerator

Contract: Permanent, Full time, 35 hours per week

Location: London, United Kingdom subject to right to work.
UK hybrid working – a minimum of 40 % of working time is spent face-to-face (London office, external meetings or travel).

60/40 hybrid working at WaterAid means roughly three days wherever you work best and two days together in person.

Salary: £33,223 - £34,894 per year with excellent benefits

Change starts with water. Change starts with you.

Every day, millions of people live without clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene. WaterAid exists to change that – for everyone, everywhere. Join us, and your energy will help unlock people’s potential and create a fairer future.

About Resilient Water Accelerator (RWA)

The climate crisis is a water crisis. Around the world, people are feeling the effects of climate change through water, including flooding, droughts, sea level rise, and irregular rainfall. Climate change is affecting seasonal and long-term water availability, meaning we can no longer rely on rain, river flows and aquifers. The Global Commission on the Economics of Water has said that the world is facing the prospect of a 40% shortfall in freshwater by 2030; and water and wastewater contribute 10% of global emissions. To adapt to this new reality and build resilience to the impacts of climate change, we need to re-think how water resources are managed and delivered for different users over time. This provides an exciting opportunity to rethink how we create investment opportunities that promote resilient water management for people and the planet.

The Resilient Water Accelerator is designed to increase the flow of private and public finance into water projects that help the most climate-vulnerable communities build resilience to climate change. Despite the high need, only 3% of total climate finance flows go towards water. Our mission is to demonstrate the business case for increased and enhanced public and private investment in water-related deals in emerging economies that strengthen resilience for climate-vulnerable communities and are replicable so that millions more can benefit. We are working to increase the speed, scale and replicability of water investment by creating a pipeline of bankable projects, bringing together the right mix of financing with the right commercial structures and partners, and supporting improvements in the enabling environment. We are undertaking work to understand local markets and context, develop templates, shared resources, and data, to build proof of concept projects to provide a springboard for increased action on resilient water. And we are developing thought leadership on how to make water more investible.

About the RWA team

The Resilient Water Accelerator (RWA), wholly owned subsidiary of WaterAid, is a global organisation that aims to: 

• Address the climate impacts on water to strengthen resilience in vulnerable communities.
• Secure greater investment from public and private sources in water infrastructure and services. 
• Ensure this work can be replicated and scaled to increase long term water security. 

To achieve this, we work with policy makers, experts, investors and communities to identify critical climate risks to water and shape a business case for priority projects. 

We work to ensure these projects act as positive examples of a new approach to programme development in the water and climate sectors. 

This role will play an essential part in delivering our international programme of work. 

About the role

As our Admin Officer, you will play a critical role in our Global Platform team — helping to link the different parts of the Resilient Water Accelerator (RWA) together and co-ordinate with our partners around the world to drive sustainable change.

The Resilient Water Accelerator is a newly formed not-for-profit organisation, which, as a wholly owned subsidiary of WaterAid, means both organisations retain a close and collaborative relationship. This is an exciting opportunity to be on the ground floor as we build new structures and culture for this unique startup organisation, as it works towards delivering on its mission.

Support SMT and wider team

o Help with the monitoring and co-ordination of SMT meetings, action and responsibilities 

o Support planning and project management across the team

o Support in the design and maintenance of a shared platform with core information and contacts, key information and core RWA documents.

o Provide support with diary management (team and individuals)

Support Hiring and Training 

o Support the recruitment and onboarding process for new staff, organising recruitment campaigns, working with WaterAid’s People Team, and liaising with candidates. 

o Supporting staff activities, including logistics for travel and accommodation for training, aways days and in-person meetings 

Logistics 

o Provide support to the Chief Executive of the RWA 

o Provide support to the newly established RWA Board of Directors, through the Board Secretariat function 

o Work with colleagues across the RWA team to process and manage information

Requirements

• Ability to act on your own initiative to ensure momentum of our work is maintained 
• Strong attention to detail 
• Strong team player and willingness to be flexible to respond to changing priorities. 
• Ability to produce high quality written work in English with a strong eye for detail 
• Experience of diary management and event co-ordination
• Experience in administration – contracts, payments and project management procedures 
• Passionate about climate adaptation and water security, and driven to make a difference in the lives of vulnerable communities 

Although not essential, we’d prefer you to have:

• Knowledge of project management tools or design software
• Experience working with a consortium of partners from both the public and private sectors

About the PVRI
We’re a small charity with a global reach and an important purpose: to reduce the burden of pulmonary vascular disease (PVD) - a serious condition that can lead to heart damage and trigger symptoms like breathlessness, chest pain, fatigue, poor growth, fainting, and light-headedness. PVD can reduce both quality of life and length of life, but it isn’t widely recognised or well-understood.

Our aim is to improve clinical care, education, and PVD research. To do this, we bring together an international network of thousands of clinicians, scientists, academics, and industry partners supported by our small team based in Bermondsey, London. Together, we deliver conferences, e-learning, and an academic journal, raise awareness of PVD, and encourage collaboration in research.

About the role
We are seeking a Marketing Officer to help grow and service the charity's profile and international membership, increase the value of our membership offer, increase our income generation, work with the team to run successful events, and deliver our e-learning programmes. You’ll help ensure our members are informed about the latest developments and learning opportunities, and they’re valued for their contributions to the PVRI. No two days are the same. One day, you might be writing content for our website and social media channels, and the next, you might be welcoming respected speakers and attendees from over 30 countries to our scientific webinar.

We are looking for someone with excellent written and verbal communication skills and attention to detail. You’ll need to create successful marketing plans and grow our membership. You will also bring excellent organisational skills and the ability to co-ordinate high-quality webinars.

What we can offer
We offer a 35-hour working week and flexible working, a positive learning culture, international travel, and opportunities for you to learn and grow in your role. And for those who prefer hybrid working, we’re based in a vibrant, sociable office space close to London Bridge and Borough Market.

PVRI celebrates diversity and is committed to equality and inclusion in our recruitment practices and ways of working. If you’re excited about our mission and can bring talent and enthusiasm to our cause, we can’t wait to hear from you!

How to apply
To apply for the role, please send us your CV and a supporting statement (max 850 words) outlining what you could bring to the role and referencing the Person Specification. Please send these, together with the Equalities Monitoring Form to Katie Corris by 09:00 on Monday 11 August.
