Part-time Office Administrator
The role
This is a part-time position, working 14 hours per week across 2–3 days between Monday and Wednesday. The role is based in our Somerset House office. The pay is £25,500 per annum pro rata.
We’re looking for someone with a sharp eye for detail, sound organisational and IT skills, and a solid work ethic. You’ll be helping the team stay on track by keeping our office running smoothly and supporting across projects.
About Us
Catsnake is a story agency for the third sector. We work with charities and causes to create campaigns, films and strategies that aim to make the world a little better. Our approach combines storytelling, research, behavioural psychology and creative strategy - and we’ve partnered with organisations like WWF, RSPB, Scope, Amnesty and WaterAid.
At the heart of it all is a belief in the power of stories to spark change. Whether it’s shifting attitudes or inspiring action, we’re here to help charities connect with their audiences in meaningful ways.
We’re a small, collaborative team based in Somerset House. It’s a cheerful, supportive place to work, full of people who care about the work we do - and about each other. We take our mission seriously, but not ourselves. We value honesty, empathy, curiosity and, of course, a very decent cup of tea.
