Exciting New Vacancy!

Would you like to make a difference to the lives of animals in Suffolk using your excellent administration and customer service skills? If so, this unique opportunity to join the RSPCA Suffolk Central Branch team could be for you.
RSPCA Suffolk Central is looking for a calm, organised and customer-focussed individual to support our welfare and animal service activities at our Clinic, Animal Centre and online via our Welfare Assistance Scheme.
You will work at our Ipswich Clinic two days a week, welcoming clients and helping to keep administration records and physical resources in good order. You will play a fundamental role in a digitisation project to get our clinic records on our computer system AniLog, and will help with practical tasks such as cleaning, as well as booking in clients and taking medication orders. You will also act as a key holder and oversee the running of the clinic in the Clinic Administrator’s absence.
For the rest of the week, you will be based at our Animal Centre in Martlesham, administering our welfare and neutering assistance scheme through issuing email vouchers to clients and our partner vets. You will also support the Animal Centre team by providing regular Reception cover and undertaking admin tasks such as collating information or statistics.
From time to time, you will go out into the community, visiting our partner vets to help maintain good working relationships. You may also be required to help with practical tasks at our Animal Centre such as cleaning and tidying to ensure the smooth running of the centre.
At the heart of the role is a need to be patient, kind and keen to help others. You will also be happy to get stuck in where needed with practical tasks and have strong IT and admin skills.
This is an incredibly rewarding role which will see you truly at the heart of animal welfare operations in the RSPCA Suffolk Central Branch.
Please ensure you include a covering letter as well as your CV when applying.
