    • Understand, adhere to, and actively implement all the Charity's policies, procedures, and services at all times
    • Be aware of safeguarding risks to vulnerable adults and ensure the TBSMK safeguarding policy is always followed

    • Financial: The administrator will have evidenced bookkeeping skills which will include working experience in accounting systems (ideally Xero) and excellent MS Excel skills.
    • Writing and editing: The administrator will assist with the drafting of reports, newsletters, board papers etc. and must therefore have an excellent standard of written English and attention to the appearance and detail of documents.
    • Time management: The administrator must deal with many different tasks and competing priorities. The ability to manage their time and organise their workload effectively will be critical.
    • Problem-solving: The administrator must be confident, competent, practical, and proactive. They must be unflappable and able to work using their initiative.
    • Technology: The administrator will need strong IT skills and be competent in the use of Microsoft Office, (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) and ideally also Google Docs, Mailchimp and using a database such as Salesforce or Beacon and creating database reports would be welcomed.

    The successful candidate will be required to undergo an Enhanced DBS check and hold a valid driving licence and access to a car.
