Sistema Scotland’s vision is to improve lives and strengthen communities. Working with children, young people and their families, we focus on early intervention and stimulating generational social change. By playing music together in ensembles and orchestras, we aim to grow confidence, respect, teamwork and aspiration in the children, young people and communities we work with.

We deliver our work through six Big Noise programmes in Douglas in Dundee, Raploch & Fallin in Stirling, Govanhill in Glasgow, Torry in Aberdeen and Wester Hailes in Edinburgh.

This is an exciting opportunity for an Operations Administrator to join the team in Big Noise Douglas (Dundee).

Working alongside an administrator, you will support the Senior Team and Operations Manager at Big Noise Douglas, providing excellent operational support, procedures and processes to ensure the continued safety, success and growth of the programme. You will also have lead responsibility for operational support at Big Noise Douglas delivery spaces. In addition, you have face to face engagement with adults and children at after-school club, ensuring a smooth-running signing in and out procedure.

You will be an experienced administrator, ideally with line management experience, who possesses a high level of initiative and problem solving, and can maintain confidentiality and discretion. You will have experience of working as part of a team and managing internal & external relationships in a high-pressured environment, along with excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage a high-pressure workload. You will lead on general communications with parents and volunteers, so you must also be an effective communicator with both adults and children. Experience of implementing and managing office & building management systems & procedures is also required.

This post is offered on a permanent, all year-round basis, working 4 days (28 hours) per week, Monday to Thursday 9am to 5pm.
