Senior Administrator Jobs in Home Based
About the job:
Earlier this year, we built a brand-new events function, and we’re looking for the final member to join this small but perfectly formed team of professionals (team consists of a Senior Events and Sponsorship Coordinator, and two Events and Sponsorship Coordinators).
If you have some events and/or sponsorship experience and are looking to develop your career in a friendly yet fast-paced environment, then this is the role for you. It’s a great time to join the team – we’re about to open bookings for two brand new conferences taking place in March next year and have many more events in the pipeline.
As well as working on our own events, you’ll support our presence at a packed calendar of sector events. There’s a lot to do, and that’s what keeps the job interesting - one day you may be on a site visit for a new event we’re planning, and the next you’ll be booking travel and accommodation for our senior leadership team to allow them to represent the ETF at an external conference.
The events function sits within a larger marketing team, so there are lots of people to meet and learn from. You’ll be busy, but you’ll also be able to develop your skills in a supportive environment where we encourage new ideas, celebrate our successes, and share our expertise and experience with each other. All of this as well as a range of benefits – think generous annual leave (plus extra at Christmas), hybrid working, access to a comprehensive staff wellbeing programme, volunteering leave and more.
(This role requires at least one day a week in the office in Victoria, London, and overnight stays as necessary to attend events.)
Your profile
To assist in coordinating and project managing a varied portfolio of events, including an annual member conference, internal staff events, roundtables, and a range of face-to-face and online events as well as overseeing the ETF’s presence at sector trade shows and conferences.
To work with the events manager to proactively seek impactful speaking and sponsorship opportunities to help build the profile and raise awareness of our work within the FE and Skills sector.
To track the events budget, including regular reporting and tracking on spend.
To produce corporate display materials and collateral for events, giving consideration to sustainability, and working closely with the marketing team to ensure brand guidelines are upheld.
To contribute to the quality review process for contract-specific events.
The successful candidate will have:
- Excellent organisational skills; able to demonstrate capability in multiple task management, prioritise workload and evidence of success in delivering outcomes to agreed timescales and tight deadlines.
- Strong IT Skills, Microsoft Office packages (word, PowerPoint, Excel and Outlook)
- Solution orientated – problem solver, flexible, adaptable & resilient
- Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to communicate and work effectively across teams and with a variety of people both interview and external to the organisation.
- Experience of project managing activities or events from inception to delivery
- Good attention to detail with the ability to monitor, review and support tasks.

We’re an award-winning charity running local learning centres in the heart of the communities where the young people we support live. Our centres provide a high-impact education programme which includes practical learning support, pastoral care, and motivational and confidence-building activities for young people aged 7-18. Our aim is to enable students from the least advantaged neighbourhoods to realise their ambitions and achieve their wonderful potential.
As the UK’s leading university access organisation, our staff team is helping over 50,000 young people each year at its 43 learning centres and extension projects across England and Scotland, and we plan to scale-up our provision to 50 centres over the coming years.
We are looking for graduates who will enjoy working each day with young people and who will thrive in a frontline, community-based, fast-paced and rewarding role. You will be taking up a permanent role as an Education Worker on IntoUniversity’s Graduate Scheme, helping to change the lives of young people.
We believe that our Graduate Scheme is one of the most exciting in the charity sector, an excellent career opportunity with exceptional training and hands-on experience, opportunities for promotion, and the chance to work with young people and colleagues who will challenge and inspire you.
Locations: We have positions available in Clacton-on-Sea, Gateshead/Newcastle, London, Nottingham
Contract: Full-time, permanent
Applications close: 9am Monday 14th October 2024
Start date: January 2025
Salary
London-based positions: £30,000 (including £2,600 London contribution) Other locations: £27,400
What to expect on the Graduate scheme
How does the Graduate Scheme work?
You’ll be joining our charity as a permanent member of the team.
Our Graduate Scheme provides two years of training and career development and we ask candidates to commit to staying with the charity for at least this duration.
After completing your first year of the programme there will be the opportunity for everyone on the graduate scheme to take on a new challenge and apply for a promotion to Senior Education Worker, subject to satisfactory performance in role.
And after you’ve completed the two-year scheme, you’re guaranteed a position with us - our Graduate Scheme roles are permanent jobs.
New job roles and further promotions are regularly available - many of our Education Workers go on to become Centre Leaders running our centres, or take up promotion opportunities in central operational or Head Office roles.
What could my day look like?
The Education Worker role is a frontline, fast-paced and rewarding role where no two weeks will look the same. A typical day will have different activities, possibly spread between the IntoUniversity centre, partner schools and the offices of a corporate partner.
In the morning, you might be setting off with resources to run a workshop for sixth-form students in their secondary school. In the afternoon you may be setting up the classroom ahead of running Primary Academic Support for young people in your IntoUniversity centre. On other days, you may be travelling to a corporate partner to run a business simulation workshop for 15 year-olds or leading a group of final year primary school students on a campus visit for their graduation.
As an Education Worker, you’ll always be delivering the programme as part of your centre team, which means that any delivery is always a team effort.
