The Vacancy

A warm welcome, from us to you

At London Early Years Foundation (LEYF), our purpose is simple and powerful: changing the world one child at a time. We do this by giving London’s children access to high quality, affordable early years education. Behind every safe, nurturing nursery environment sits a team who make sure our spaces, systems and people can thrive. And that’s where you come in.

If you’re someone who brings calm, organisation and clarity to busy, purpose driven work, you’ll find this role enjoyable and meaningful. You’ll support the Health & Safety, Sustainability and Facilities team to create the environments where children learn, grow and feel safe and where colleagues feel supported to do their best work.

Lead the operational heartbeat that keeps children safe and nurtured

This is a role for someone who loves variety, detail, structure and people. Our team works across everything from compliance checks to sustainability partnerships to urgent facilities issues and you’ll be the organisational key helping it all run smoothly. You don’t need to know everything on day one. But you do need to be switched on, proactive, detail focussed, and brilliant at communicating clearly with people at all levels. If you thrive in roles where every day is different and your work genuinely matters, you’ll feel right at home here.

What You’ll Be Doing

Support the smooth running of a busy, multidisciplinary team

  • Provide day-to-day administrative support across Health & Safety, Facilities and Sustainability.
  • Manage shared mailboxes and draft clear, timely responses.
  • Coordinate updates from nurseries and COTs, ensuring accurate data and reporting.

Keep projects and contractors moving

  • Help set up and keep on track of our JIRA ticketing system to log issues, track progress and update stakeholders.
  • Liaise with contractors, nursery managers and suppliers to organise works and ensure completion.
  • Assist with 15+ large facilities projects, tracking progress and ensuring documentation is accurate.
  • Support the annual tree audit, surveys, invoices and compliance.

Help us stay compliant, safe and well organised

  • Stay ahead of compliance deadlines, checks and follow-ups.
  • Collate accident records from nurseries, maintain spreadsheets and extract accurate data for reporting.
  • Maintain records linked to legal compliance, building regulations and acquisitions.
  • Support risk assessment recording and timely follow-up.

Strengthen our sustainability work

  • Support relationships with 13 Green LEYF partners.
  • Coordinate initiatives such as Sproot (which saved 7 tonnes of clothing last year).
  • Help onboard new partners and organise quarterly meetings.
  • Support waste management contracts and sustainability-led projects across nurseries.

What You’ll Bring

  • Previous administrative experience with a warm, customer focused approach.
  • Exceptional attention to detail and strong written communication.
  • Highly organised with the ability to juggle multiple priorities.
  • Confident using Excel, email, Microsoft Office and new systems (including JIRA).
  • Comfortable liaising with suppliers, contractors and external partners.

Behaviours & Mindset

  • Fast paced, switched on and proactive.
  • Clear communicator able to manage upwards and flag issues early.
  • Collaborative and credible with a range of stakeholders.
  • Adaptable, resilient and persistent especially when chasing updates.
  • Calm, professional and patient, even when tasks are repetitive.
  • A self-starter who spots what needs doing and gets it done.
  • Motivated by LEYF’s mission and the impact you’ll have on children, families and communities.

Why you’ll love it here

Because your work will keep children safe, support colleagues across London, and help us deliver big ambitions in sustainability and facilities.

You’ll Enjoy:

  • A warm, people centred culture
  • True hybrid working (3 office days, flexibility beyond that)
  • Meaningful work where your organisation really matters

And of course, you’ll be part of a mission driven social enterprise helping to change the world one child at a time.

We welcome you exactly as you are

A diverse team makes us stronger and more effective. Whatever your background or lived experience, if you have the skills and motivation to excel in this role, we’d love to hear from you. Apply online and tell us why this role matters to you – we’re reviewing applications as they come in.
