Event administrator jobs in abbey wood, greater london

ANTRUK is a small UK patient organisation for people impacted by antibiotic and antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Our legitimacy to advocate for change, with policy makers and NHS organisations, comes from our research projects, our engagement with patients and their families, and from our direct support of patients through our information service and peer-support activities. In addition to our direct services, we have a fundraising team and a small central services function. 

We have an immediate need for a Coordinator for our Priority Setting Partnership (PSP) Project, working remotely, for 1.5 days a week, to oversee the administration of the project.

This will need someone to work autonomously adapting emails text to the specific audience, and following up on responses to make sure the survey reaches the right person. The PSP Coordinator will organise the face-to-face priority-setting workshop in November/December 2025. There will be an opportunity to help prepare content for newsletters and social media if this is a skill the postholder has or would like to develop.  

To see more details, please see the Job Description. The Background Information document gives further context of the PSP project.

Please be aware we will review applications as they are received, candidates selected for interview may be invited to interview quickly. If considering applying, we advise this is done as soon as possible.

You will lead the daily operations, manage a broad booking system, and provide exceptional customer service to students and external clients. If you’re passionate about creating a positive user experience and improving facilities, we want to hear from you!

Who are we?

Part business, part charity, part membership body – students’ unions are all seriously fun places to work. They are organisations in their own right. Professionally run, but different. Professional teams support elected student leaders to make change, improve lives and fulfil potential; we help make it happen. Founded in 1897, LSE Students' Union is one of the oldest Students' Unions in the UK and is the representative and campaigning body for students at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). Like other Students' Unions, it also funds and facilitates student activities on campus, including 200+ societies, 40+ sports clubs through the Athletics Union (AU), the Media Group and Raising and Giving (RAG) charitable fundraising initiatives.

What's the Job?

LSESU is looking for a proactive and driven Facility Coordinator to oversee the daily supervision and operation of our sports facilities. You’ll be responsible for ensuring the smooth running of the spaces, from health and safety compliance to customer service excellence. You’ll also manage internal and external bookings, including LSE Sports Clubs, and coordinate weekly sports events such as BUCS, Club and Society events and private hires from external companies. 
 

In this role, you’ll work closely with the Ops and Facility Manager to deliver the strategic vision for our facilities, focusing on enhancing the user experience. You will oversee training procedures, incident reporting, and various administrative tasks, including financial reporting and facility usage tracking. 
 

You’ll collaborate closely with both staff and students, playing an active part in day-to-day operations and strategic development of the sports facilities. Your work will have a direct impact on the student experience at LSE, ensuring the seamless running of the facilities and successful execution of sporting events, whilst also managing bookings and supporting continuous improvements and innovations.

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for a highly organised and customer-focused individual who is passionate about creating a positive and inclusive experience for all users of our facilities. You should have excellent communication skills and be confident in leading a team of student staff, ensuring their development and performance. 

A strong passion for customer service and delivering high-quality services are essential. Experience in facility management or sports event coordination is ideal. 

We are looking for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, with the ability to solve problems efficiently, a strong work ethic, and work collaboratively with a diverse team.

Why apply?

Because you’re excited by the challenge! The exact opposite of corporate, we’re progressive, daring and creative individuals working to make a difference in unconventional workplaces. Plus…
