Administration Officer

At Rochdale Development Agency, we believe that thriving places don’t just happen by chance. They are created through vision, collaboration and the ambition of people committed to making a lasting difference. We are passionate about creating opportunity, attracting investment and driving sustainable economic growth across the borough of Rochdale.

Working in partnership with businesses, investors, public sector organisations and local communities, our purpose is to create a place where people, organisations and enterprise can thrive. Every project we deliver, every partnership we build and every initiative we lead, contributes to a stronger economy, vibrant communities and a borough where businesses can prosper and people can fulfil their potential.

To help us with our journey, we are currently on the lookout for an exceptional Administration Officer to come onboard and support our team.

As an organised, proactive and highly professional Administration Officer, you will play a key role in supporting the day-to-day operations of the organisation. In this varied and rewarding role, you will work closely with colleagues across all teams, providing high-quality administrative support whilst building positive relationships with internal and external stakeholders.

This is far more than traditional administration. You'll be at the centre of the organisation, helping to ensure activities run smoothly by coordinating meetings, managing shared processes, maintaining accurate records and supporting a wide range of business support functions. You'll manage competing priorities, contribute to organisational projects and take a proactive approach to identifying and resolving issues before they arise.

As well as providing effective administrative support across the organisation, you will help improve systems and processes, ensuring high standards of service delivery and contributing to the efficient operation of the wider team. You'll be a trusted source of support, working collaboratively with colleagues and demonstrating flexibility in response to changing business needs.
