Pa And Administrator Jobs in Birmingham
About Us:
Thank you for your interest in our PA to CEO role. ROLDA (Romanian League in Defence of Animals) is a small animal welfare charity working to improve the lives of dogs, cats, and other animals in Romania and internationally. Since its establishment in 2006, ROLDA has become a beacon of hope for the millions of vulnerable stray animals in Romania – one of Europe's economically poorest nations. Our mission is to manage the homeless animal population, estimated to be millions, through six key focuses: rescue, rehabilitation, sheltering, sterilisation, and education. Within our shelters, inspired by British kennel design and maintained to meet EU animal welfare standards, we can house up to 700 rescued animals at a time. Here, they receive complete veterinary care, rehabilitation, and preparation for rehoming. Since 2006, we have helped over 80,000 animals (primarily dogs and cats) and built two shelters for dogs and one for disabled and senior cats. We also distribute support, primarily through small grants, to other charities in Romania and approx 40 shelters in Ukraine. We rehome mainly in Switzerland, Sweden, and the UK. In addition to our efforts in rescuing and rehoming animals, ROLDA tackles the root cause of Romania's homeless animals through comprehensive neutering programmes and educational initiatives. Since 2006, we have successfully neutered thousands cats and dogs, significantly impacting Romania's severe overpopulation of animals.

Interviews: 1st round, week commencing w/c 28 April. 2nd round, week commencing 5 May.
The NBN Trust is a nature charity with a difference. Our mission is making data work for nature. The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries on Earth and, if we’re to stand any hope of fixing it, we’re going to need data. Lots of data. “What gets measured gets done”, as the saying goes. We need to understand what we’ve lost and what remains. We need to set targets for nature’s recovery. And we need to measure success as nature turns the corner and starts to make a comeback.
That’s where the NBN Trust comes in. We support the entire UK conservation movement by providing public access to the wildlife data that’s needed to make good decisions for nature. We’re a conservation charity, tech charity and people charity rolled into one – a unique combination!
You’ll be responsible for:
· Driving the delivery of our strategy and vision of making data work for nature.
· Developing and maintaining excellent relationships with our partners, funders and stakeholders.
· Overseeing the day-to-day management of the NBN Trust, ensuring financial sustainability, staff performance and wellbeing, and good governance.

Passion for nature conservation is essential, as well as a desire to engage with the many natural history specialists who contribute data to the NBN Atlas. We’re looking for an ambitious individual with an agile, entrepreneurial mind-set, who can drive income generation and growth.
The ideal candidate understands what an excellent data platform looks like and how to continually evolve this to keep up with trends and developments. Attention to detail and ability to horizon-scan is key in overseeing the Trust’s projects and key work streams and ensuring good governance. The NBN Trust is a small team, with a big responsibility, undergoing a period of change, and your role will be to steer the staff through this change and deliver the NBN Trust’s strategy.
We’re a 100% remote-working charity, so you’ll need to be comfortable and effective working from home. The whole team meets up four times a year for in-person team meetings (in London and other locations around the UK). The post holder may be required to work occasional weekends and evenings.
Applicants must reside in the UK and be eligible to work in the UK.
We’re an equal opportunities and Living Wage employer. We welcome all applicants, and we’re striving to create an inclusive and diverse team. If you’re interested in joining us, please read the Job Pack – and get in touch if there’s anything you’d like to ask.
