EcoCoach CIC is a child-first, community-focused social enterprise providing wraparound care, alternative provision, holiday programmes, and inclusive community projects across Cambridgeshire and neighbouring areas. As we grow, we are seeking organised and reliable volunteers to support the essential behind-the-scenes work that keeps our organisation running effectively.
This is a flexible, admin-only role with no child contact. It can be completed remotely or from our Cambridge office. It is ideal for anyone who enjoys organisation, wants to support a meaningful cause, or is looking to gain experience in admin, operations, or the community sector.
What you’ll be doing
You will support our Director and Operations Lead with day-to-day office and operations tasks, including:

- Updating spreadsheets and databases
- Supporting rota management and scheduling
- Preparing documents, forms and reports
- Keeping digital files organised in Google Drive
- Uploading and tidying paperwork for ongoing projects
- Supporting booking system updates (training provided)
- Assisting with volunteer systems and admin
- Light data entry and general organisational tasks
- Helping with simple funding admin or reporting where needed
No specialist knowledge is required — just the willingness to help and learn.

- Organised and detail-focused
- Comfortable using basic computer tools (email, spreadsheets, Google Drive)
- Able to work independently with clear instructions
- Reliable and committed to helping a community-focused CIC
- Friendly and open to learning new tasks
We welcome people of all backgrounds, including students, returners to work, retired professionals, and those seeking experience in a supportive environment.
Time commitment
This role is flexible — you choose what you can offer.
Most volunteers contribute 2–6 hours per week, but any regular support is appreciated.
What you’ll get from volunteering
- Experience in community operations and non-profit administration
- Training on our systems (Pebble, Google Workspace, filing systems)
- The chance to support a growing CIC with a strong community mission
- A supportive team environment
- New skills in admin, organisation, and project support
- Reimbursement of agreed expenses

Where the role takes place

- Optional: Cambridge office (admin only)
- No child contact. No safeguarding or DBS required.
