Are you an experienced administrator, with a positive, can-do attitude, with a passion for using your skills to help improve the lives of older people?
Charity People are delighted to be partnering with a charity focused on promoting the rights of older people in care, to recruit an Operations Coordinator to join their small team based in central London.
The charity wants people to know their rights and how to use them. They offer information, advice and support to empower people using care services, and their relatives and friends. As a community of families and experts, they fight for better lives for people in care. They challenge poor care, highlight good practice and demand a better care system.
The Operations Coordinator will be at the heart of the charity's work, supporting their small team to deliver their ambitious aims. You will manage the office to ensure smooth running of processes and help improve efficiency, and provide administrative support across services, campaigns, research and policy work, helping the charity to raise their profile.
Key responsibilities
- Office coordination: Lead the day-to-day office management by developing office policies and procedures, streamlining our systems, acting as first point of contact
- Administration: Provide administrative support across our operations, including finance and fundraising, managing relationships with members and donors
- Governance support: Provide logistical and administrative support to our Governance structures

You'll have solid IT skills, including Microsoft Office and CRM systems, and a commitment to good data management. You will be comfortable working with local policies around confidentiality, safeguarding, and health and safety.
A commitment to the charity's vision and values is a must. Experience or interest in adult social care and working with older people is desirable, as is knowledge of Beacon CRM, Zoom, and Mailchimp.
This is a part time role, in a small charity, within a fast-paced environment. You will be working as part of a friendly, dedicated staff team and alongside colleagues who are experts in their field. There will be opportunities for co-learning and sharing knowledge and skills. You will have full right to work in the UK and the role is subject to satisfactory references and a DBS check.
The office is currently located near Angel. The charity will be moving later in 2025, and it is very likely that the office will still be in North/East London.
This is an exciting period of change for the charity, as they invest in growing their services and seek to diversify and increase our reach across the UK. If you are excited by the role, and have the relevant skills and experience to apply, we would love to hear from you.

Living Wage Foundation
The Living Wage is an independent movement of businesses, organisations and people who believe that a hard day’s work deserves a fair day’s pay. The Living Wage campaign was launched by London Citizens in 2001 and aims to ensure low paid workers have enough money to get by and enough time for community and family life.
The Living Wage is an hourly rate calculated according to the basic cost of living in the UK that employers choose to pay on a voluntary basis. The Living Wage Foundation recognises and celebrates employers that pay the real Living Wage through an accreditation programme which awards the Living Wage Employer Mark.
The independently-calculated rates are announced during Living Wage Week each November when we celebrate our growing network of Living Wage employers. There are now more than 15,000 accredited Living Wage employers across the UK which has secured pay rises for over 475,000 employees.
The Living Wage Foundation is part of Citizens UK – a community organising charity which works with a broad base of institutions across the political spectrum. At the Living Wage Foundation, we take a deliberately broad-based approach and accredit all organisations who pay the real Living Wage to their directly and indirectly employed staff and are committed to tackling in work poverty. As a team we work across a range of industries and sectors to achieve this mission. We seek pragmatic coalitions in order to progress specific campaigns, and partnership around a particular issue such as Living Wage, does not imply an endorsement of broader purpose and policies.
