Office & Facilities Lead – GalGael, Glasgow
Salary: £17,000 – £19,000 pro-rata (FTE £28,300 – £31,600), depending on experience. Real Living Wage compliant.
Hours: 22.5 hrs/week (Tues-Thurs)
About Us
GalGael is a small community organisation creating the conditions for people from marginalised communities to reclaim health and agency through working with their hands – woodwork, growing, crafting, cooking, and boat repair. We wrestle with work that stretches us - and we need someone to keep our operations running smoothly, so our team and community can thrive.
The Role
We're looking for an experienced Office & Facilities Lead to join our small, self-managed team. You'll be the operational backbone of the organisation – take care of day-to-day office administration, including managing supplies, handling correspondence, maintaining records, and coordinating schedules and meetings. You'll handle compliance (including PVG), liaise with contractors, and provide admin backbone for our Making Just Futures project.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Act as designated PVG Coordinator – managing disclosure applications and records

Who We're Looking For
You're highly organised, love a good system, and take pride in enabling others to do their best work. You have substantial experience in administration, with demonstrable responsibility for compliance, record-keeping, or operational coordination. You handle confidential information with discretion and can thrive in a self-managed team culture.
