Your work will help our charity clients to grow and evolve and ultimately to become more effective.
You need excellent attention to detail, to be eager to learn, progress and take on responsibility, and be a great problem solver.
You will be in a client‑facing role, so delivering a great client experience through exceptional written and verbal communication is key.
