We run Community Partnership Hubs and school programmes that combine sport, STEM education, and nutritious meals to inspire Key Stage 2 children while supporting their families. 

Our main office is based in Roehampton, where we also operate our local Community Hub. We deliver programmes across London, the Midlands, Yorkshire, and Manchester, and run a Community Box Programme, providing food support to families through our hubs. 

 

Role Overview 

We are seeking a motivated, organised, and proactive Charity Administrator with a can-do attitude to support the day-to-day running of the charity. 

This is a varied and rewarding role, ideal for someone who enjoys managing multiple tasks, building relationships, and contributing to a mission-driven organisation. The role offers opportunities for professional growth as the charity continues to expand. 

 

Key Responsibilities 

1. Administrative & Financial Support

• Provide administrative support across all areas of the charity’s work. 

• Raise invoices, upload receipts and invoices to Xero, and manage supermarket takings and deposits. 

• Ensure all internal processes (e.g. MOUs, impact assessments, documentation) are followed accurately. 

2. Hub & Community Project Coordination

4. Communications & Outreach

• Maintain and update charity media platforms with current staff, contact, and funding information. 

• Support the development of social media and external communications. 

5. Flexibility & Teamwork

• Work closely with senior leaders and the wider team while managing independent tasks effectively. 

• Be adaptable, proactive, and open to varied responsibilities. 

• Attend occasional events, hub visits, and school activities nationwide (some may be out of normal office hours – time off in lieu provided). 

 

This job description is not exhaustive, and you may be required to carry out additional tasks appropriate to the role as the charity continues to grow and develop.
