The Role
Advice Services Administrators/Receptionists support the day‑to‑day delivery of our services by ensuring the efficient running of Citizens Advice Wandsworth (CAW) advice services, including telephone and in‑person reception and front of house services, working with volunteers and paid staff to ensure that reception works well.
You will be a core member of the reception team, working in a busy fast‑paced environment. You will be responsible for greeting and booking in clients who have pre‑arranged appointments and assisting members of the public to understand how to engage with our services and working with volunteers providing information, or signposting to other services where appropriate.
The role requires flexibility about specific responsibilities because our services evolve as funding is secured, renewed or changes. It also involves supporting managers with service development and contributing to our planning and wider initiatives such as Research and Campaigns.
Why you should join us
We’re a dynamic organisation with a culture of quality and innovation. We’re ambitious about delivering advice services that make a real difference to local people and being a great place to work and volunteer. You’ll be part of a diverse and friendly team of staff and volunteers who are passionate about helping the people who need us most. Working with us means seeing yourself and your colleagues have a positive impact on the lives of ordinary people and helping to protect our communities from hardship, poverty and crisis.
We also believe that investing in and listening to our teams makes us a better organisation. We involve staff and volunteers extensively in the design and delivery of our services, as well as in long‑term planning. You’ll benefit from working at an organisation with a strong commitment to professional development and continuous training – we’re proud of our teams and in return offer excellent opportunities for personal development and career growth.
