Shining Stars Cardiff CIC is a vibrant community interest company dedicated to providing affordable childcare for children age 2-5 years old, in a nurturing and stimulating environment.
Our mission is to help children shine by fostering creativity, learning, and personal growth, as well as helping ethnic minority women gain work experience, training and confidence to enter the workforce.
We are continually expanding on ideas to help out the community, and are currently organising an English Conversational Class for ethnic minority women with children under 5 years old.

As a Volunteer Administrator, you will play a vital role in the smooth running of our nursery school. Your key responsibilities will include:
– Managing records and documentation.

– Strong organisational abilities and attention to detail.
– The ability to work both independently and as part of a team.

This position is flexible, but we would prefer a commitment of at least 2 mornings a week at the start to help manage and create new systems to maintain. Access to your own laptop would be useful, but not necessary, but expert digital skills needed.
