About Us

We are Save the Children. Together, we fight for children every single day so that they can make their mark on the world and build a better future.

We stand side by side with children in the toughest places to be a child. We do whatever it takes to make sure they survive, get protection when they're in danger, and have the chance to learn.

About the role

The Global Programmes Coordinator will provide administrative support to the Global Programmes Division, helping to keep it running smoothly and effectively. This includes developing, coordinating, and updating key administrative, budgetary, planning, recruitment and information systems in support of divisional objectives. This essential role will work across a range of departments within the Global Programmes division (Divisional Operations, Humanitarian, Programme Partnerships and Programme Quality and Impact).

In this role, your Key Accountabilities will be: 

• Administrative Support: To develop and coordinate appropriate administrative systems, including: organising complex divisional or departmental level meetings, awaydays and events; coordinating desk booking and asset management; providing subject matter expertise (SME) for departmental staff organising their own travel.

• Team Support: To help teams navigate the processes that will support and enable administrative self-sufficiency.

• Finance: To support the processing of invoices and respond to queries from department and finance colleagues as necessary.

• People & HR: To support divisional or departmental HR processes through data collection and database management of mandatory tasks and training, providing SME support to people managers leading recruitment for their teams, and coordinating induction processes for utilisation by people managers for new staff. May provide more direct support to recruitment processes led by Directors.

• Internal Communication: To act as the initial point of contact for internal enquiries and requests for information about the work of the department, to triage or respond to ad hoc queries and to update information on the website, SharePoint and email lists.  May work with others on coordinating and producing departmental or divisional level communications such as newsletters.

• Other: To perform other responsibilities as may be required from time-to-time to ensure the smooth running of the division and department and to deputise for colleagues as required (including Coordinators covering other departments or supporting the Global Programmes Executive Directors).

About you

We are looking for a candidate that takes genuine satisfaction from keeping teams, systems and processes in order and that recognises the value of strong administration.

To be successful, it is important that you have:

• Experience of operating administrative systems and working in a large, complex office environment.

• Ideally experience of managing and booking international travel.

• A high level of computer literacy (Microsoft Office, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and databases).

• Ability to organise and prioritise multiple tasks efficiently and deliver tasks to tight deadlines.

• Ability to work flexibly, managing reactive and proactive work from a range of colleagues.

• Good relationship-building skills, with the ability to tailor communication methods to different audiences.

• Ability to be proactive and show initiative with demonstrable ‘can do' approach to work.

• Commitment to support cross organisational initiatives and team working and understanding of how to contribute to these.

 What we offer you:

Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.

• We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.

• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.

Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.

Ways of Working:

The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (up to 2-4 days per month or 6-8 days per quarter).  This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building. 

Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense. 

Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.

Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: 

Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think. 

We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.

Fundraising department

Our dynamic fundraising department generated £4.5 million through donations in 2023/2024, and we are now preparing for an ambitious multi-million-pound campaign in support of a ground-breaking cancer centre on the Royal Free Hospital site.

We pride ourselves on being supporter focused and agile, working at the heart of the charity to deliver impact for patients and staff across our hospitals.

Responsible for attracting and retaining donors, and delivering an outstanding supporter experience, the fundraising department comprises two teams which work closely together to achieve our shared objectives:

· Our Philanthropy & Campaigns team builds relationships with individual philanthropists, trusts, foundations, corporate organisations, and intermediaries, giving or facilitating donations of £10,000 or more to the charity each year. They lead major appeal activity for the charity, currently focused on the acquisition of a new surgical robot, our forthcoming cancer campaign, our essential volunteering, complementary therapy and support services, the charity’s first patron programme, and special events to support these activities.

· Our Public Fundraising team harnesses the support and energy of individuals and groups, helping them to give back in the way that works for them. This includes committed giving, in memory support, gifts in wills, and fundraising events and challenges. Our database and supporter care teams sit within public fundraising, with their work underpinning and supporting the entire department.

Building on our achievements, our board of trustees has agreed to invest in expanding the fundraising team to develop a sustainable infrastructure that will support our growth ambitions.
