Operations & Growth Coordinator

Are you an ambitious, self-motivated individual looking to build a career in the charity health sector? Do you want a role where your work directly impacts patient support while giving you hands-on experience across operations, fundraising, and communications?

AIMS Charity is taking an exciting step forward by hiring our very first paid staff member
. Up until now, our vital work, providing peer support, information, and advocacy for patients and families with MS particularly those undergoing Stem Cell HSCT treatment, has been driven entirely by our dedicated Board of Trustees.

• Flexible Working: 15 hours per week designed to fit around your life, with remote working and flexible hours.

• Competitive Package: enhanced full salary 4% employer matched pension (with optional Salary Sacrifice setup), Pro Rata 12.4 days paid annual leave (including a paid Christmas shutdown perk), and a £30,000 FTE salary baseline.

You’ll split your 15 hours per week across three key pillars:

We are looking for a self-starter with potential

• Great Communication
  
  Skills:
  
  Empathetic, clear, and engaging in written and verbal communications with patients, supporters, and partners.

• Tech Confidence: Comfortable using Google Workspace, social media platforms, and tools like Canva or Mailchimp (or quick to learn them!).
