Administrator at Fabrica Gallery

Based in our beautiful Grade II* listed building in central Brighton, the Administrator plays a central role in co-ordinating our creative organisation, enabling Fabrica to run smoothly, safely and cost effectively.

As Administrator, you'll be the first point of contact for staff, tenants, contractors, and the public. You'll oversee office systems, manage IT and service contracts, support financial administration, and ensure that our building is safe, secure and well-maintained. You'll also help deliver internal meetings, respond to office hire enquiries, and maintain accurate records for reporting to our funders and stakeholders.

Health and Safety is a key part of the role: you'll lead on in-house training, oversee risk assessments and emergency planning, and ensure all legal requirements and procedures are followed. You'll work closely with the Co-Directors, Office & Communications Co-ordinator, and other staff to ensure that Fabrica remains a welcoming, safe and well-run environment for artists, clients, and visitors.

Financial administration is another aspect of the role. Working with the Finance Manager, you'll input income and outgoings using QuickBooks, support invoicing and petty cash, and assist with VAT returns and audits. The successful candidate will be supported to complete the AAT qualification within the first 18 months, with course fees and time off to study covered by Fabrica.

This is a hands-on, behind-the-scenes role ideal for someone who enjoys providing excellent support for Fabrica's small team and who thrives in a structured but creative workplace. You'll need strong attention to detail, good communication skills, and a willingness to take on responsibility across a range of administrative and operational tasks.

If you're ready to contribute to Fabrica's operation as a respected arts organisation and unique venue, we'd love to hear from you.
