The BBC World Service Trust is the independent international charity of the BBC which uses media to advance development worldwide. Our mission is to improve the quality of people’s lives in developing and transitional countries through innovative use of media. We do this through our focus on health, governance, livelihoods, climate change and humanitarian response. We work in partnerships that include governments, broadcasters, civil society institutions, donor agencies and international Non Governmental Organisations (NGOs).
As Team Assistant for our busy Africa Regional Programme, based in London, you’ll provide excellent administrative, financial and office management support to both the Regional Director’s office and the Africa Regional Programme staff. Your duties will be varied and will make a valuable contribution to the success of our work. So, you can expect to organise resources, develop and manage important programme compliance systems, and organise complex diary and international travel arrangements.
You’ll demonstrate experience of working in a fast paced and highly productive operational environment. Within this, you’ll have shown exceptional organisational and administrative skill. So for example, you’ll demonstrate a high attention to detail, often under pressure. Therefore, you’ll show an ability to prioritise work in order to meet deadlines along with the flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances. You’ll underpin this with an ability to deal confidently with staff and contacts at all levels, both in person and on the telephone.
