Team Administrator supporting large project teams with budgets, compliance reporting, and organized workflows.
United KingdomWhat I'm looking for
In my current role as an Employment & Voluntary History Team Administrator at St John Ambulance, I support the workflow of a large team of project officers—maintaining trackers for budgets and project goals, supporting compliance in reporting, and handling diary management for managers and team leads.
I’ve also supported St John Ambulance’s SJA Vaccination Programme as a vaccinator, working alongside healthcare professionals and health assistants while advocating for patients and escalating issues to the right professionals or site lead. Alongside that, I’ve provided driver support for the SJA fleet and delivered First Aid cover for a wide variety of public events.
Outside healthcare, I lead and support community programmes through Scouting and governance work—planning Beaver Colony sessions and events, deputising across network leadership, and advising on trustee board questions and training within UK Scouts (TSA). I bring an analytics side too, converting GoFundMe data into reports and identifying recurring donors for Lobular Breast Cancer UK.
