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.
