Ark is an international charity, transforming lives through education. We exist to give every young person, regardless of their background, a great education and real choices in life. In the UK, they're a network of 39 schools, educating around 28,500 pupils in areas where it can make the biggest difference and are recognised as one of the highest achieving academy groups in the country. Ark wants to change the lives of children everywhere, not just Ark schools. So, they create and incubate Ventures designed not only to help pupils in Ark schools, but also to improve education systems.

You will exercise wise judgment to manage and prioritise competing demands on the CEO's time. You will provide administrative support to the CEO, compiling information and drafting well-written documents consistent with the tone and style of the CEO and the wider organisation. You will also assist in the drafting letters, reports and documents (including confidential items). You will also support the board for a part of your role.

You will have an enthusiasm for diary management and the organisational and diplomatic skills required to do this well. You will be highly computer literate, with experience of data handling and necessary IT systems. Overall, you will have excellent communication skills, a strong attention to detail and be highly organised.
