We’re on a journey to create fairer communities by facilitating 10 million social entrepreneurs globally by 2030. Do you want to help make this a reality?
We are looking for a new team member with customer facing experience along with excellent administrator skills.
In this role you would join a team of Programme Coordinators who are highly organised and customer-focused individuals with a strong commitment to social enterprise. As part of the team, you would support effective delivery and maximise the impact of the Academy’s adult learning programmes by providing proactive, flexible administrative, coordination and customer service support. Critically you would play a central role in the learner experience, acting as the primary point of contact for the Academy and delivering consistently high standards of customer care throughout the learner journey.
We’d love to talk to you if you have experience in a customer-facing or coordination role, have strong organisational, administrative and communication skills and are confident working with multiple stakeholders and teams. If you also speak Gaelic that would be amazing, but it’s not an essential requirement.
Having the right mindset, attitude and approach is as important for us as having the right experience and skills. We appreciate that the best person might not have all the listed criteria yet so if you think your experience, skills and attitude will help you to make a great contribution in this role and you have the right mindset, we would welcome an application from you.
