Jobs in Slough

You’ve got proven administrative experience and you’re a good team player with a flexible approach. All you need is the perfect environment to put your skills to great use. Welcome to Richmond Fellowship’s YUVA service in Surrey as an Administrator. 

The YUVA service supports young people aged 11-18 who have used violence or abuse toward family members or intimate partners. Our behavioural change programme works to help young people identify their abusive behaviours and develop healthy coping and communication patterns.

In this role, you will provide a range of admin support to the team which will include taking and managing referrals into the service, keeping database and client records, facilitating room and interpreter bookings and attending, contributing to and taking minutes at team meetings.

Enthusiastic and keen to develop, you’ve got good communication skills and a professional telephone manner as well as experience of maintaining computer databases. It goes without saying that you are able to prioritise a busy workload and work to deadlines and you’ll be keen to work within an organisation that works both with young people who use abuse and families who have experienced domestic violence.

In return for your skills and enthusiasm, this role comes with some really great benefits and excellent training and development opportunities. 

This is a permanent role requiring the post holder to work 22.5 hours per week.

We are committed to increasing our diversity and welcome applications from those with Lived Experience.

This is a rolling recruitment process. Candidates will be interviewed as and when they are shortlisted.

To apply, please send a CV and covering letter explaining why you feel you are right for the role.

On 1st June 2024, Richmond Fellowship, part of Recovery Focus, a national group of charities highly experienced in providing specialist support services to individuals and families living with the effects of mental ill health, drug and alcohol use, gambling and domestic violence merged with Humankind to form a single organisation that provides the joined-up mental health, housing and drug and alcohol support we’ve all known has been needed for decades. In October 2024, Humankind will be renamed to reflect the new organisation.

Yeldall Manor is a Christian recovery centre for men wanting to overcome their addiction problems. We have created this new part-time position to provide consistent and professional HR support to the organisation, bringing together various roles currently undertaken by a few different staff members.

The role will suit someone who can work under their own initiative (after training in our charity practices), experienced in overseeing the employee journey from recruitment and retention to departure. You will act as the first point of contact for HR-related queries, and ensure that the charity is compliant with all relevant legislation. This will involve dealing with all employment matters, building robust policies & procedures, and implementation across the organisation. You would also be responsible for preparing the staff rota and all related administration. We do not currently have HR software, so reviewing our requirements in this area would be one of your responsibilities. Please see the job description for full information about this varied post.

As a small charity (c. 35 staff including part-time and casual workers), the role will require balancing practical and administrative tasks with management responsibilities. We anticipate that you'll be based in the office for at least two days out of the three days/24 hours worked per week. This is in a lovely rural setting near Twyford (Reading) and, being situated within the rehabilitation centre, you will have daily contact with those men whom you are ultimately helping. They inspire and motivate us just as much as we seek to encourage and support them. 

As this is a strategic post within an actively Christian setting, applications should be from committed Christians. Schedule 9, Part 1:3(a) of the Equality Act 2010 applies.

About the Film & Television Charity 

The film, TV and cinema sectors are widely admired and crucial to the UK economy, both in terms of our exceptional creative talent and the sector’s growing economic importance. But a culture of long hours, challenging conditions, and sometimes harmful cultures and behaviours can also make it a tough sector to work in, with the retention of talent an ongoing problem as a result. In 2019, the charity found that 9 in 10 working behind the scenes had experienced poor mental health in what was described as a ‘mental health crisis’.  More recently, with a host of factors challenging job security in the sector, the charity has also uncovered a startling lack of financial resilience across the workforce, with financial pressures only contributing to pressure on mental health and wellbeing.

The Film and TV Charity exists to support the 200,000 people who work in TV, film and cinema. Since the introduction of the Film and TV Support Line in 2018, the charity has been on an exciting journey of change and has joined industry partners at the forefront of the movement to make work better for everyone in the industry.

We are pursuing a strategy to improve the wellbeing of everyone working in the industry – mental, financial, and physical – in order to help build a fairer and happier industry for all.  We are doing this through a combination of the direct support we provide to individuals and what we call our work to ‘make change’ at a structural level in the in industry.  We are mainly funded by donations from both corporates and individuals, and successful fundraising is critical to the delivery of our work.

We have committed to ensuring our services are relevant to and engaging with everyone in the industry, at every stage of their career, no matter what their background.  This means applying an equity, diversion and inclusion lens to everything we do.

Role Overview 

Working with the Whole Picture Toolkit’s Digital Product Manager, wider digital roles, and our industry and mental health subject matter experts, you’ll help shape the future product. 

The Toolkit supports the mental health and wellbeing of thousands of crew members across the UK and on location overseas, through guides and templates.
