About us
There aren’t many organisations that can say they’ve been serving their community for over 550 years. Croydon Almshouses (CA) can and we’re proud to be the oldest charity in Croydon, rooted in a long-standing commitment to local people and place. Since 1447, we’ve provided almshouse accommodation to older people with a connection to Croydon who are negatively affected by poverty. For the past 40 years, we’ve also awarded grants to voluntary, community and faith sector organisations, and individuals across the Borough. Now, our focus is firmly on what comes next. Our vision is to create thriving communities where everybody can live with dignity and independence, using our resources and agility to reduce the impact of poverty on people in Croydon.
To help us deliver this, we’re recruiting a proactive and organised Administrator, who is a values-led team player, who demonstrates exceptional attention to detail and strong communication skills to support CA’s staff team to deliver on its ambitious objectives.

- Experience maintaining accurate records and handling confidential or sensitive information appropriately
- Experience communicating verbally and in writing effectively with a range of internal and external stakeholders
Closing date: Tuesday 1st September, 9am. Interview date: Tuesday 8th September, in person. For further information please contact MacLaine Adler, Governance Manager by an email, if you wish to have a discussion about the role.
