Theatrum Mundi is looking for an Admin Assistant
It’s an exciting time for Theatrum Mundi.

We’re looking for an administrative assistant to support the day-to-day running of the charity.
As the administrative assistant you will be mainly assisting the studio manager, supporting them with the day-to-day running of the studio.

- Managing our online shop and shipping orders;
- Supporting bookkeeping: processing invoices and filing receipts on our bookkeeping software;
- Supporting communications: formatting and editing images and documents for social media and the website.
We are looking for someone at the early stage of their career, who is organised, meticulous, keen to learn and support others. Interests in arts and/or architecture would be beneficial.
