Help us make a difference to people with life-limiting illnesses…

At The Myton Hospices, we provide specialist care and support for people with life-limiting illnesses, and their loved ones, from the point of diagnosis to end of life. We are a much-loved and well supported charity, at the heart of our community. We have three hospices, a range of community services, and 25 charity shops in Coventry and Warwickshire.

About the role

Gifts in Wills are an essential part of Myton’s fundraising, enabling us to continue supporting patients and families across Coventry and Warwickshire.

As Legacy Administration Officer, you’ll play a vital part in securing this income and ensuring supporter and stakeholder relationships are developed and supported.

You’ll also support the wider Fundraising teams with other areas of administrative support.

This is a part-time position (15 hours per week during Monday-Friday office hours), which is office-based at our Warwick Hospice.

About you

You could be our Legacy Administration Officer if you:

  • Have well-developed administrative skills and a high level of attention to detail.
  • Have excellent written and verbal communication skills to effectively communicate with trustees, executors, and the public.
  • Are well organised, with some understanding of the legal aspects of probate and estate law.
  • Have the right to work in the UK.

A standard DBS check will be required because your role can involve interaction with patients. We will arrange and cover the cost of this check.

Similar roles include: Legacy Officer; Legacies Fundraiser; Administrator; Fundraising Administration; Charity Administrator.

However you identify, and whatever background you bring with you, we welcome you to apply. If there are any adjustments that would help improve your experience with Myton, we encourage you to share this with us.

We particularly welcome applications from people with disabilities and from ethnic minorities, who are currently under-represented in our hospices. We also believe our interview process should be inclusive and transparent. If there is anything missing, or a way we can improve, please do let us know.
