Your new company

I am working exclusively with a wonderful historic membership organisation with a rich legacy spanning several centuries, located in the heart of central London. The associated charitable trust of this organisation provides grants to support educational research and aids small charities in their field. Both the company and the trust are located in an historic and stunning hall which also serves as a very sought-after venue for corporate events.

Your new role

This is a part-time position which can be over 3 full days or 4 shorter days. As an Administrative Assistant, you will provide essential support across multiple areas, including charity administration, accounts and events management. You will assist with the grant and prize administration, support accounts with various tasks and help organise and manage a variety of events throughout the year. Additionally, you will contribute to the smooth operation of the office by managing equipment and supplies.

What you'll need to succeed

To excel in this role, you will need to understand and appreciate the culture that comes with working in an organisation with a rich history and traditional values, which are reflected in its daily operations. You should be able to prioritise your workload and work to tight deadlines while being able to help in various departments. Confidence in using Microsoft Office (Outlook, Word and Excel) and experience with membership databases are essential.

What you'll get in return

You will receive a salary of £21,000 (60% of the pro rata £35,000 FTE) for 21 hours per week. Additional benefits include an employer's pension contribution of 15% of salary after the first year, a 15-day annual holiday per annum (pro rata 25 days for FTE), plus a 2-week Christmas closure period, health cover and Death-in-Service cover from the day you start. This is an office-based role with some flexibility to work remotely after a successful probation period.
