- Administration of assigning referrals to colleagues across the NRVS Central and Regional teams.
- Recording information onto the CRM system.
- Providing effective admin support to the whole NRVS team and Head of Service

You will be joining a skilled, dedicated and friendly team, with a visionary, dynamic and expert chief executive committed to growing the charity’s impact, and a knowledgeable and engaged Board of Trustees
