IER are hiring! We are looking to recruit a Finance and Administrative Assistant. This is a great opportunity to contribute your skills to an established and well respected think tank. Originating in the labour movement, IER works with a broad network of experts including academics, lawyers and trade unionists to produce high quality, authoritative publications and events. We’re a small, busy team so we’re looking for a team-player who’s happy to get stuck in and able to hit the ground running.

This position would suit someone who is highly organised, confident using Sage 50 accounts and with excellent communication skills. The applicant would need to work well under pressure, prioritise a busy workload, and work towards quarterly deadlines for financial reporting. An individual with experience of the trade union movement is desirable but not essential.

This post will be based in our Liverpool office, working two days a week as part of a small committed team and reporting to the Director.

The below application pack includes the following:

• Information about IER
• Guidance on completing your application
• A job description and person specification
• An application form
• An equal opportunities monitoring form

IER promotes equal opportunities and welcomes applications from qualified persons regardless of their gender, race, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, religion or belief.

Please complete the application pack with equal opportunities monitoring forms (attached as one document at the bottom of this page) and return both by email to cad@ier.org.uk or by post to IER, 4th Floor, Jack Jones House, 1 Islington, Liverpool L3 8EG by 5pm on Wednesday 18 September 2019. Interviews will be held on Monday 30 September in Liverpool.

If you have not heard back from us by 25 September 2019 we have decided not to interview you on this occasion. However, we will do our best to respond to each application.
