About the role
We are seeking an energetic and dynamic Operations Assistant for an exciting new role at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, supporting the team that manages the day-to-day functioning of our busy heritage site.
This is a hands-on role encompassing everything from arranging meetings and minute-taking, HR admin, timesheets and other payroll-related tasks, to jumping in to support the Visitor Services and Events Teams on busy days, managing the Museum Lodge (a small residential property for use by Museum researchers and bursary students), working with the Head of Operations on commercial ventures, and occasionally moving dinosaurs.
Managed by the Head of Operations and with a reporting line to the Museum Executive Assistant, the Operations Assistant will give administrative support to all areas of the work of the Museum’s operations team.
This is a permanent, full-time role working 36.5 hours per week. Part-time work up to 80% of the full-time hours could be considered.
About You
You will have excellent administrative and communication skills. You will also have a demonstrable passion for Museums, a can-do attitude and be a collaborative and enthusiastic colleague.
Experience of basic design work including using Adobe In Design and experience of managing at events would be ideal.
What We Offer
As an employer, we genuinely care about our employees’ wellbeing and this is reflected in the range of benefits that we offer including:
  • An excellent contributory pension scheme
  • 38 days of annual leave
  • A comprehensive range of childcare services
  • Family leave schemes
  • Cycle loan scheme
  • Discounted bus travel and Season Ticket travel loans

Our staff and students come from all over the world, and we proudly promote a friendly and inclusive culture. Diversity is positively encouraged, through diverse groups and champions, as well as a number of family-friendly policies, such as the right to apply for flexible working and support for staff returning from periods of extended absence, for example, shared parental leave.
How to apply
You will be required to upload your CV and a supporting statement (or supporting evidence form using the template provided) as part of your online application. Your supporting statement should list each of the essential and desirable selection criteria, as listed in the job description, and explain how you meet each one. CVs alone will not be considered.
