Together, they're helping people change their stories. You could join them as they work to ensure every primary school in the UK has a dedicated library space. What you'll be doing The government has committed to ensuring a library in every primary school in England by the end of this Parliament - a step that supports the aim to tackle the nation's steep decline in reading for pleasure. Our client will work to design the programme of delivery in England, whilst also continuing its mission to ensure every primary school in the whole of the UK has a dedicated library space to help create a strong reading for pleasure culture for its pupils. They are recruiting two Project Officers who will support the delivery of this work. You will provide administrative support and working closely with Project Managers to deliver a nationwide programme.

You will also develop and maintain administration systems and workflow processes, with support from the team. You will be contracted to our client's office in London, but this role is suitable for home and flexible working, with the majority of your work carried out from home if you would prefer. However, you will need to be available to travel to London for staff and team days, as well as to support project delivery and partnerships.

Our client helps people overcome these challenges and change their life chances through the power of words - reading, writing, speaking and listening. From first words, through school days to training, jobs and beyond. - They work collaboratively in local communities, focusing their work in areas of the UK that are facing the biggest challenges. - They support schools, developing the most effective tools and techniques and providing resources and programmes to engage and inspire children. - They campaign to make reading and writing a priority for politicians and decision-makers. - They support vulnerable adults, people in the criminal justice system and young offenders' institutions to build their skills. What our client offers you Their team are passionate about their mission and they have a strong and positive working culture, based on shared values and respect. They offer a range of flexible working options and promote a workplace where you can be yourself and contribute to the organisation's success, whoever you are.
