This role offers an excellent opportunity to join a young but highly impactful Armed Forces charity. We are seeking a highly motivated and capable Administrative Assistant to support the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), Executive Team, and wider organisation across a range of administrative responsibilities.
You will work closely with the Executive Assistant (EA) to the CEO and COO, so strong communication, attention to detail, proactivity, and teamwork are essential. The ideal candidate will be highly organised, an efficient note-taker, and a confident communicator with strong people skills and the ability to balance multiple tasks effectively. The role requires a proactive individual who can use their initiative to identify needs, solve problems, and drive tasks forward.
This role plays a key part in ensuring smooth day-to-day operations across the organisation, including diary management, meeting support, arranging travel and accommodation, and inbox coordination. The position reports to the EA and provides reliable backup to the Executive and Senior Leadership Teams. Some UK-wide travel may be required to support Executive commitments as well as attendance at quarterly team meetings in Edinburgh.
Joining the Veterans Foundation at this moment, during our 10-Year Anniversary Year and delivering several major projects including anniversary celebrations, a brand refresh, significant PR activities, a CRM implementation, and a website redesign, means you will gain valuable insight into the internal operations of a leading funder within the Armed Forces third sector.
