Post: Living Wage Administrative Assistant (LWAA26)

Salary: £29,718 per annum pro rata plus 8% pension, 17.5 hours per week, (until March 2027 with possible extension)

An opportunity has arisen to join our Living Wage Scotland team as an Administrative Assistant, to support our efforts to further grow the Living Wage employer movement in Scotland. 

 The real Living Wage has been one of the most successful civil society campaigns in Scotland and the UK in recent years. Not only has it won cross-party political support, and gained increased acceptance amongst employers, it has also delivered tangible benefits for thousands of workers.  

 The post holder will be responsible for providing administrative support to the team, to help service our growing network of 4000+ accredited Living Wage employers and support additional employer accreditation schemes. This will include a wide range of administrative tasks, such as managing and responding to queries, maintaining accreditation records and systems, organising events and day-to-day administrative support to the hybrid team, and regular collaboration with partner organisations to navigate shared systems.  

We are looking for candidates with a sound understanding of the administrative operations needed in small organisations. In addition to the necessary technical skills, the role requires strong attention to detail, excellent communication skills, the ability to manage a varied workload, and an enthusiasm for working as part of a team, as well as autonomously.  

  Closing date for applications: 12pm, Friday 5th June 2027 

Interviews: Week commencing 22nd June, in Glasgow 

Expires: 2026-06-05
