About the Role

As a Volunteer Administrator you will be working alongside colleagues to support with general office duties within a small but busy office.  Office duties include typing, filing, responding to telephone enquiries and other general office duties, and will have support and supervision at all times.

What are the benefits of becoming a volunteer?

By becoming a volunteer administrator, you can support our services 'behind the scenes', by helping with the organisation and smooth administration of the service.  You can gain valuable skills and knowledge that can enhance your personal and professional development, or bring skills from a previous role to help us run an efficient back office.  

How much time do I need to commit as a volunteer?

The advert details the days and times we're needing help at the moment.  There may be other opportunities to volunteer at other time in the future.  

Generally, we ask for a minimum of at least six months.

What kind of support will I receive as a volunteer?

You will receive ongoing support and guidance from a local coordinator who will monitor your progress, and provide feedback. You will also have access to online resources, training opportunities, and peer support from other volunteers.

Travel expenses will be paid.
