North West Mull Community Woodland Company

We’re recruiting: Part-time Administrator

North West Mull Community Woodland Company is looking for a part-time Administrator to join the team and help support the day-to-day running of the charity.

This is a varied, home-based role, supporting a wide range of work across north west Mull and the Isle of Ulva — from light book-keeping and minute taking to general administration that helps keep things running smoothly behind the scenes.

We are a community-based charity delivering woodland, housing, heritage, infrastructure and environmental projects, and we’re looking for someone organised, reliable and comfortable working independently, who enjoys being part of a small and collaborative team.

Role details

  • 12 hours per week
  • £14 per hour
  • Home-based (applicants must live on the Isle of Mull or Ulva)
  • 12-month fixed-term contract, with potential to extend

Previous administrative experience is essential. Experience of working with charities or community organisations would be helpful but is not required, and training will be provided on internal systems where needed.

How to apply

Please apply using an online form (works on mobile and desktop): https://form.jotform.com/260334650111039.

Alternatively, you can request an application pack (Word document) by emailing admin@nwmullwoodland.co.uk.

Closing date: Friday, 20th February 2026.

More details about the plan can be found here.
