Membership and Recruitment Administrator

Listening Books is a charity that provides an excellent audiobook lending service to people whose illness, disability, learning or mental health difficulty, impacts on their ability to read the printed word. Our audiobook catalogue contains over 10,000 titles and we have a total reach of 100,000 members across the UK. We believe that books should be accessible to everyone.

We have a fantastic opportunity for the right candidate to join our small team to help grow Listening Books' reach. If you have excellent organisational and research skills, would like to expand your experience in the charity sector and are interested in representing a charity that supports anyone with a print impairment, then we would love to hear from you.

The successful candidate will provide administrative support to the charity, including answering the main telephone line, opening and processing post, booking couriers and obtaining permission to use members’ quotes in marketing materials.

They will undertake the retention of its sponsored and paying members, by contacting renewing individual and organisational members, with the intention of retaining as many as possible and encouraging their use of the audiobook service. 

They will also help increase referrals to our service, by building and developing relationships with local partner charities and other relevant organisations. They will allocate funding to eligible new and renewing sponsored members, helping to meet our funding requirements and expand the charity’s membership base.
