Home Working (Occasional Travel may be required) 

Part-Time: 3 days per week 

£13,759 per annum (£22,932 FTE) 

Are you highly organised, passionate about governance, and looking to make a real impact? This is your chance to support two dynamic organisations – England Athletics and its official charity, Personal Best Foundation – in a shared administrative role that will help drive their success. 

We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Administrator to provide high-quality support across both organisations. This exciting position focuses on governance, secretariat duties, meeting coordination, and ensuring compliance with best practices. You’ll play a key role in supporting England Athletics’ vision to make athletics and running an inclusive sport where everyone belongs and can flourish. 

 

What we are looking for: 

  • Experience: Proven administrative experience, ideally within a charity or not-for-profit organisation, with essential experience in a secretariat role – particularly in preparing and accurately recording Board and committee minutes. 

  • Skills: Strong organisational and communication abilities, with excellent proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly spreadsheets for record-keeping and reporting. Experience in database management is also required to support the work of Personal Best Foundation. 

  • Passion: A genuine interest in wanting to support both organisations to increase opportunities in the sport and make a lasting impact. 

 

Whilst not essential, some knowledge of the sport of athletics is highly desirable. 

Why join us? 

This role offers a unique opportunity to work across two leading organisations – supporting the growth of athletics nationwide and helping to transform young lives through sport. You’ll be at the heart of governance, operations, and meaningful impact. 

Who We Are: 

  • England Athletics is the membership and development body for Athletics and Running in England, dedicated to inspiring more athletes and runners of all abilities and backgrounds to fulfil their potential and to have a lifelong love for the sport. 

  • Personal Best Foundation is the official charity of England Athletics, with the purpose of changing the lives of children and young people from underserved communities through the power of athletics. 

 

If you are passionate about supporting governance, driving change, and making a lasting impact, we’d love to hear from you!
