You will be providing specialist administrative support, working closely with branch volunteers in order to ensure a consistent, timely, quality service is provided to SSAFA beneficiaries. This will include supporting volunteer caseworkers, call handling, sign-posting and triaging initial enquiries.

About you
You will need to have proven experience in delivering excellent customer service, the ability to plan and manage your own workload and demonstratable experience of high-quality administration skills using Microsoft office 365 suite.
Whilst a Passion and drive for the cause of our charity is key, it would also be beneficial to have an understanding of the way of life for today’s Armed Forces, veterans and their families.
