We’re looking for a tech-savvy volunteer to support our small but mighty team with all things digital – from simple fixes to smarter systems. You’ll be the go-to person for those “Why won’t this printer connect?” moments, right through to “Can our CRM do what we actually need?”
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys problem-solving, improving systems, and helping people feel more confident with tech – without all the jargon.

- Help organise and streamline our shared cloud folders
- Review our current CRM and suggest improvements or alternatives
- Recommend digital tools that can save time and reduce manual work
- Create easy-to-follow “how-to” guides for the team

- Comfortable using Office 365, Google Workspace, spreadsheets, and CRMs
- Confident with basic troubleshooting for hardware/software
- Able to explain things simply and clearly
- Friendly, solutions-focused, and happy to work independently
- Experience with CRMs is a bonus
