Belvedere, United Kingdom care for young people Full time

As the Administrator of our first children’s home, you will be responsible for undertaking a variety of administrative tasks to ensure the smooth running of the home.

About you
- Are you an experienced Administrator or Office Manager or PA ?
- Do you enjoy setting up and leading on new systems and processes?
- Want to help us improve life opportunities for children and young people ?

We are looking for people who are committed to ensuring young people in care have the same opportunities as everyone else.

You will need to have experience of working in an administrative role and be capable of planning and prioritising your own workload.
