School Mock Court Case Project SCIO (Mock Court)

is a small but mighty Scottish charity with a big mission: to inspire school pupils through engaging, real-life legal experiences.

Keeping the day-to-day admin ticking over - from emails and spreadsheets to databases and filing Coordinating schedules, venues, and logistics for mock trials across Scotland Supporting volunteer recruitment and training Helping the team prep for events Providing essential support to the Board (they're lovely, promise)
What You'll Bring:

Solid admin experience and a knack for staying organised under pressure Excellent written and verbal communication skills (with a dash of charm) Comfort with Microsoft Office, databases, and scheduling tools An interest in law, education, or the charity sector (bonus points for all three!) The ability to work independently while being part of a small, collaborative team
Perks of the Job:

Flexible working hours Opportunity to work in a passionate, purpose-driven environment A front-row seat to inspiring, sometimes hilarious, school court performances The chance to genuinely impact young people's lives
Sound like your kind of gig? We'd love to hear from you.
