Do you want to be part of a team dedicated to helping and supporting older people?

We are a local charity for local people and our mission is to work with and for older people to improve the quality of later life. An exciting opportunity has arisen in our Reception/Admin team and we are looking for a caring, self-motivated individual to help us achieve our vision that Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin is a county where older people flourish.

The post is based at our headquarters in Bellstone which is a busy public office where older people, their families and carers visit or telephone for information and advice. An ability to communicate well with older people, volunteers and professional colleagues is essential to this role.

The successful candidate will be responsible for carrying out telephone and reception duties, answering enquiries, signposting, plus administrative support which will require skills in the use of Microsoft packages (particularly Word, Outlook and Windows 10). A knowledge and understanding of the local voluntary sector would be beneficial.
