Job Introduction
We’re excited to announce an excellent opportunity for a Senior Administrator to join our team. The Bridge Project has been providing support since 1983. We work with individuals, families and communities to improve people’s lives in a sustainable way, recognising that solutions are often complex. Today we have a strong staff team of 110 dedicated individuals who address a range of issues such as homelessness, substance misuse, sex working, housing, employment and lots more.
This role is to provide a comprehensive and efficient administrative support service to the Senior Leadership Team and Board of Trustees, along with line managing and supporting the administration team. This is a full-time permanent role.
You’ll be great in this post if you are already working in a senior administrative role supporting a number of managers; are an enthusiastic and pro-active team player, are able to multi-task, are methodical and highly organised with the ability to plan your own time. This is a key role, and you will be an integral part of the team and will play an important role.
We are looking for someone who has demonstrable experience of taking minutes, preparing meeting papers, tracking actions and following up actions. This is a large part of the role, and it is crucial that the successful candidate has the skills to carry this out to a high standard, with a keen eye for detail.
This is a busy role, and we are looking for someone with resilience who is able to work under pressure. You will show tact, diplomacy and discretion and have integrity and be able to keep confidential information to yourself.
You will also line manage and support two Administration and Resource Workers to provide an efficient administration service to Salem Street, along with providing a welcoming environment for people who use our services including visitors and colleagues in both the main reception and our on site Re-Connect Centre.
If you are passionate about what we do and would thrive working as part of our supportive and positive staff team, we’d love to hear from you.
In return, as well as a rewarding career, we can offer a competitive salary, 4% pension contribution, generous annual leave entitlement, employee assistance scheme, life insurance, a monthly team wellbeing session and a programme of mindfulness activities for staff. The Bridge Project is a Mindful Employer.
