Are you a methodical, task-driven person looking to work as part of a supportive team that makes a positive difference to people’s lives?

Sightsavers has a great opportunity for a production coordinator to join us as a member of our global online and design team.

The job would suit an organised person who can keep projects on track and ensure deadlines are followed, whilst supporting the wider team with day-to-day administrative tasks. The role also offers the opportunity to learn lots about digital production, the design process and accessibility, as well as the work that Sightsavers delivers internationally.

The ideal candidate will have solid administrative experience and understand they will be an integral part of a busy, multi-disciplined team. Good relevant software skills (eg with Microsoft Office, Adobe packages or Content Management Systems) are also required. Previous experience within the creative, digital or charity sectors would be welcomed.

There is a strong induction process within the team and within Sightsavers. Once familiar with the role, the abilities to communicate clearly and take instruction are essential, as is the ability to work autonomously when necessary.

Fluency in Swedish, Norwegian, Italian or French would be helpful, but are not essential.

As well as coming to work with the knowledge that you will be helping make a genuine, positive difference to people’s lives, we offer a pleasant, professional working environment, standard office hours, good holiday allowance and other benefits.
