We are seeking a passionate, value led individual with exceptional organisational skills to join our small and dedicated team. This role will provide a wide range of experience, from diary management, supporting community events, to developing inter team shared systems, and we offer opportunities to develop new skills.
We want to hear from candidates who are passionate about social justice and who want to make a positive difference to the lives of people struggling to keep their heads above water during this time of economic uncertainly.
Turn2us is committed to equity, diversity, inclusion and amplifying the voice of people with lived experience of financial insecurity – especially within our own team. We are especially keen to develop candidates who aren’t afforded a typical route to entry in the charity sector and provide a rich work environment, so they can expand their knowledge, learn new skills, and grow in confidence as they build their careers. No formal qualifications are required. We instead want to meet people who have good attention to detail and a tenacity and determination to learn and get things done.
We offer flexible working patterns, both in terms of hours and remote working. Please note that all employees are required to work from the office a minimum of 4 days a month. Some roles may be required to be in the office more often than others and this will be agreed with the hiring manager upon starting at Turn2us.
Please note that all job offers are subject to 2 – 3 satisfactory references and a disclosure satisfactory to Turn2us from the Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS).
