About the position

Love keeping things organised? Thrive in fast-paced, purpose-driven environments? Here’s your chance to step into a role where no two days are the same — and where your skills help drive real impact in the conservation sector.

We’re looking for a dynamic Administrator Assistant to join a high-performing Strategic Communications team based in Newlands, Cape Town. You’ll be the go-to person for keeping operations smooth — from managing diaries and travel plans to coordinating events, liaising with service providers, and ensuring marketing materials are ready to wow.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Delivering first-class administrative support to the communications team and Executive Manager

  • Coordinating meetings, workshops, events, venues, catering — and making them run like clockwork

  • Managing travel arrangements (local and international) and preparing itineraries

  • Processing invoices, assisting with budgets, and keeping financial records on track

  • Organising and maintaining filing systems, databases, and office processes

  • Liaising with suppliers, obtaining quotes, and ensuring the best value for spend

  • Guarding confidentiality like a pro

What we’re looking for:

  • At least 5 years’ administrative experience (including financial administration)

  • Relevant qualification

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

  • Advanced Excel and MS Office proficiency

  • Organisational skills that would impress Marie Kondo

  • Ability to juggle multiple priorities without breaking a sweat

  • Positive, solutions-focused mindset and a love for collaboration

If you’re ready to put your organisational superpowers to work in a meaningful, impactful environment, we want to hear from you.
