About the Role

We are looking for an experienced and highly organised Operations & Administration Assistant to join our small team and provide essential administrative, financial and operational support across the charity.

This is a varied and hands-on role, suited to someone with a strong administration background who enjoys working across different areas of an organisation. You will play an important role in helping the charity run effectively, supporting the senior leadership team and ensuring that key administrative, financial and operational processes are well organised and maintained.
 

The role includes a range of responsibilities, including finance administration, basic bookkeeping, supporting payroll processes, maintaining financial records and using Xero. You will also provide operational and HR administration, support volunteers, contribute to the development of policies and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and assist with communications and digital content.
 

You will work closely and collaboratively with a small senior leadership team, contributing to the smooth running of the charity and providing practical support across a range of areas. At the same time, we are looking for someone confident working independently, able to manage their own workload and priorities, and comfortable taking responsibility for completing tasks without needing close supervision.

All of our volunteers, staff and trustees are Autistic. This means that there is a wide range of communication styles, processing preferences and individual support needs across our team.
 

We recognise that there is no single “right” way to communicate or work. The successful candidate will need to be confident in understanding and sharing their own working style, communication preferences and support needs, and to be comfortable discussing these openly with the team.

We encourage open conversations about reasonable adjustments and different ways of working. We do not make assumptions about a person's abilities, skills or capacity based on their communication style, how they express themselves, or the way they prefer to work.
 

We are looking for someone who can contribute to a respectful, flexible and inclusive working environment, while also being willing to communicate openly about what they need to work effectively.
