Birmingham Hospice is the leading provider of adult palliative care in the region. We care for people in their own homes, in the community,  at our Living Well Centres and in our Inpatient Units. We care about our patients and their loved ones, and we aim to understand and meet their needs. We have a team of counsellors, spiritual carers, therapists, wellbeing volunteers and bereavement volunteers whose focus is on supporting our service users emotionally and spiritually, when they need it the most.

We are looking for an experienced administrator to provide a range of administrative support to our Wellbeing Team. As our Wellbeing Administrator you will ensure the delivery of a high-quality administrative service, to support the range of services we offer.  You will also play a key part in helping to organise a number of events in memory of loved ones.

You will be required to input data into our hospice systems, receive and prioritise incoming calls and messages for the team, and support the recruitment and training process for our volunteers.  You will be required to take accurate minutes from meetings, and have responsibility for raising purchase orders and checking against invoices.
