Hungarian Chaplaincy Support Administrator

We are recruiting an Chaplaincy Support Administrator for our Hungarian Chaplaincy who will be providing administrative support to the Chaplain and his team, as well as liasing with other departments to facilitate communication, ensuring the smooth coordination of support services offered by the chaplaincy. Additionally, you will support the team members with tasks such as expense reporting, supply ordering and coordinating hire of any chaplaincy facilities, such as hall bookings.

You'll love working in a front-of-house role, with an acute attention to detail, and will have excellent communication skills both written and verbally. To be successful in this role, you will need to be able to work methodically, and thrive both in a small team and when working independently. Additionally, you will have excellent organisational skills, and an innate ability to prioritise your workload efficiently. The successful candidate will play a pivotal role for the Hungarian Chaplaincy team, and will be an individual with experience working within a responsible role within a similar position of office administration or communications assistant. We encourage Catholic applicants as well as those of other faiths, or none. What we require above all else is that you respect the values we share to help others and support decent and dignified work for all without prejudice.

Actions we take to provide equality of opportunity for all candidates include:

• We anonymise application forms during our shortlisting process to ensure that candidates are assessed without any consideration of their name, gender or background.
• As part of this anonymisation, we don't take into consideration where candidates studied, or the method of that study e.g. full-time, part-time or distance learning.
• We apply a consistent approach to our question setting across our applications and interviews to ensure that everyone is assessed against the identified values, competencies and job requirements. Our values are important to us and as such we use a scoring framework that marks candidates based on values, behaviours and competencies.
• We provide guidance and brief all our interviewers throughout the selection processes in recruitment best-practice to mitigate against any potential for conscious or unconscious bias or discrimination. Whenever possible we will have multiple interviewers when assessing each candidate to ensure marking is accurate and fair.
• We ensure all our assessment venues are accessible. We offer alternative formats of our application forms to encourage applicants with disabilities or who require reasonable adjustments to perform at their best.
• We will work together with candidates with a disability or health condition to implement reasonable adjustments to enable them to feel comfortable and strive during the assessment process.
