ABOUT BPNA
The British Paediatric Neurology Association (BPNA) is the professional organisation for doctors who specialise in the care of children with neurological disorders. The BPNA has developed a number of educational programmes for doctors in the UK and overseas both online and face-to-face. This role directly supports the education of healthcare professionals across the UK, impacting the care of children with neurological conditions.
ABOUT THE ROLE
As a respected and growing organisation, BPNA is looking for a highly motivated individual who can use their dedication, attention to detail and reliability to help us develop further. We are seeking to appoint a UK Short Course Administrator to join our small team which is based across our Bolton and London offices. This is a full-time, permanent post based in Bolton, working 37.5 hours a week (7.5 hours per day x 5 days per week). The Short Course Administrator will provide customer care as well as logistical and technical support to both online and face-to-face UK short courses.
ABOUT YOU
This role would suit an organised, efficient and practical person with excellent interpersonal and communication skills and a good deal of common sense. You will also have diplomatic skills and the ability to build good relationships. You will need to be flexible, have an ability to problem-solve on-site, provide online zoom support, set up equipment such as computers and data projectors, and to organise highly educated people whilst remaining calm and maintaining a sense of humour. We are looking for someone to join our team who will contribute to maintaining and developing our customer focused ethos.
While this role is primarily based in Bolton, there will be some UK travel with overnight stays to support in-person courses. We offer time off in lieu or overtime paid for additional hours worked.

As a member of BPNA, you'll have access to ongoing training opportunities and support for professional development, ensuring that you can grow both within this role and across future career aspirations.
We offer 25 days’ annual leave (excluding Bank Holidays) plus an additional day leave for birthday, rising to 30 days after 10 years of service and access to the Nest Pension scheme, with 6% employer contribution.
LOCATION
While this role is based in Bolton, BPNA offers hybrid working arrangements, enabling you to balance time between working from our office and from home. Your line manager will agree with you how much time you will be required to work in the office and how frequently, to achieve productivity and service levels. This could vary week to week. You should anticipate spending an increased amount of time in the office during your probationary period.
JOB PURPOSE
This role provides hands-on experience with technology support for virtual courses and event planning for in-person courses for health care professionals, equipping you with skills in both administrative and event coordination settings. All course planning and logistics are arranged from the BPNA offices.
