Support Team Assistant
Be part of a mission-driven charity supporting women, with flexible part-time hours, generous leave, robust wellness benefits, and a supportive, inclusive environment.
For those interested in a meaningful part-time role supporting a charitable mission, the Support Team Assistant (Female, Part-Time, Job Share) position offers a salary in the range of £10,833 to £12,500. The role is geared for applicants who favour flexible hours, job-sharing, and a variety of employee-focused benefits, including wellness leave, mental health support, enhanced sick pay, and potential participation in a 4-day workweek.
Key Responsibilities and Daily Duties
Support Team Assistants play a crucial part in ensuring the charity’s smooth operation. Responsibilities involve administration, HR, IT and facilities support, collaborating within a proactive team.
The role includes assisting with general administrative functions, managing records, and contributing to finance tasks. You’ll also work to ensure workplaces are safe and well-run.
Day-to-day tasks require attention to detail, flexibility, and excellent organisational skills. Teamwork and good interpersonal communication are highly valued.
The assistant supports staff and volunteers in providing essential services to women in need. Problem-solving, initiative, and a solution-focused approach are central to the role.
Pros: Why This Role Stands Out
The benefits package is generous, including a wellness allowance and extra holiday linked to length of service. Employees may access counselling, reflective practice, and a health plan.
One25 champions inclusivity — encouraging applicants from diverse backgrounds, including the LGBTQ community and those with lived experiences. The charity actively removes application barriers for applicants needing reasonable adjustments.
Cons: Potential Considerations
This role is strictly open only to women assigned female at birth due to legal occupational requirements. Some applicants may find this limiting.
While the 4-day workweek trial is appealing, there is no guarantee it will continue, and its future is subject to internal review.
Verdict: Our Take
For those seeking a meaningful, supportive, and flexible role with strong team values, this position is a compelling choice. The inclusive culture and focus on staff wellbeing strongly set it apart.
However, prospective applicants should be certain of meeting the unique eligibility requirements before applying.
