We’re here to prevent children and young people becoming involved in violence. We do this by finding out what works and building a movement to put this knowledge into practice.
The HR & Operations Officer will be excellent at organising things, so that people working at the charity can make a massive difference to the young people we are here to serve. You are the person that everyone thinks, “Thank goodness you’re here to make everything work smoothly”.
We would be especially interested to hear from if:
You're brilliant at improving and organising things: You like finding ways to make things operate better for everyone. You enjoy bringing order to what is going on. You’re good at getting your head around how a process works and improving it.
You're able to juggle many diverse tasks at once: You enjoy moving between different types of projects, whether that be supporting our HR team or sorting out an issue with our IT provider. You prefer a job that looks different every day. You don’t get overwhelmed by a long to-do list and are able to effectively identify what’s most important and how to balance different priorities.
