Service Objectives

The Nuneaton Children and Family Centre's support children and their families to enable them to thrive, achieve, develop, and to build a resilience to cope with life.

Roles and responsibilities specific to this post

We are looking to recruit, a reliable, flexible and welcoming 'As and When' Receptionist to support our services. Working as part of our admin team you will be responsible for welcoming centre users, ensuring they are directed to the correct service or room, answering the phone, responding to enquires, and undertaking basic administrative tasks.

The post holder will be based on reception at Camphill Children and Family Centre in Nuneaton, but the role may also include opportunity to work at other locations across the locality, subject to service needs. For these reasons access to your own transport may be desirable but not essential.

Please Note - This is an 'As and When ' post. Anticipated hours of work will mostly be between 8.30am and 5pm Monday to Friday, and 9-12noon Saturday. Hours are available during both school terms and school holidays. Flexibility to occasionally work evenings would also be desirable but not essential.

You will work as part of a dedicated, professional, and friendly team to help improved outcomes for children and families. As a receptionist, you are the first point of contact in our Centre.

Do you have a warm and welcoming manner? Can you be empathetic? Can you communicate clearly, confidently, and respectfully with members of the public and professionals alike? Can you work with care to ensure personal information is kept confidential? Do you have good IT skills?

If this sounds like you, we would really like to hear from you. We are looking to appoint a person who has reception experience but will also consider candidates who can demonstrate they have the skills and knowledge to fulfil the role.

Unfortunately, we are unable to accept CVs. Please therefore ensure you complete all sections of the online application form carefully. When completing your application please tell us about your skills, knowledge, and experience, in relation to the job role and the context of the service as described above, as well the  Person Specification , and Job Description .

Please note due to the high volume of applications for some posts, this advert might close before the displayed closing date. We recommend that you apply for this role as soon as possible.

Pay & Reward Framework

We know that our colleagues go above and beyond in delivering our vital work, driven by their passion and commitment to Barnardo's . We also know that we can only realise our ambitions and achieve better outcomes for more children, thanks to the talent, hard work and creativity of our people. 

For all these reasons, we are committed to a new approach to pay and reward, to ensure it is fair, attractive and progressive, which was rolled out in April 2023. This is a positive change for the charity, and a part of our Strategy. It will assist us in supporting colleagues to belong, thrive and grow in their colleague journey at Barnardo's and in time will offer clear routes of progression for colleagues in both their career and their pay. 

Whilst the full pay band and salary range is advertised, our approach to starting salaries is to appoint between the minimum to mid-point of the pay band – this ensures that pay steps are available to reward our colleagues annually based on their contribution to excellence and alignment to our values and behaviours. More details on Barnardo's pay framework can be found upon application.
