ART seeks new Administrator

Applications for this role have now closed

The Association of Ringing Teachers is looking for a new part-time, paid Administrator to take over this key support role for the organisation. ART is a registered charity (no. 1156971) operating ITTS for Ringing Teachers and Learning the Ropes for Ringers.

Angela Roskelly has ably filled this role for the last two years, and we would like to thank her for her immense contribution to the success of ART during a period that has seen very significant growth in the organisation. Whilst Angela has enjoyed being ART Administrator, she is looking to begin a new business venture and has unfortunately decided now is the time to move on.

This opportunity comes at an exciting time for the organisation, and for a new Administrator. The role is a home-based job that involves the day-to-day management of the ART organisation, ART Teacher Training Scheme (ITTS) and the Learning the Ropes scheme.
