Newcastle Foodbank want to recruit an Office Administrator and invite applications from suitably experienced and competent candidates.
Our Charity, established in 2013, provides services to people experiencing food insecurity and poverty. Newcastle Foodbank wish to recruit an Office Administrator to its existing team to provide general administrative duties and support for the day to day operations of the organisation. This role will interest someone with an administrative background who is organised, skilled in the use of Office 365 and IT applications in an office environment and able to ensure the delivery of a customer focused service as part of a dedicated staff and volunteer team. The role will contribute to the smooth and efficient running of a busy office and the administration to support all aspects of the services provided by the Charity. The role is often the first point of contact for clients and the general public and requires someone with good communication skills, tact and empathy.
In the last 12 months Newcastle Foodbank issued approximately 20,000 food parcels to assist individuals and households affected by poverty. Demand for the Foodbank’s services and welfare support has increased due to the rising costs of living and the low levels of income experienced by many households.
Individuals with expertise and lived experience of the city’s diversity, cultures and socio-economic challenges, will view this role as an opportunity to help people strive for change. Applications for this post are invited from all sections of the community.
Hours: 30 hours per week – Monday to Thursday (negotiable).
