you’re right – the is_admin() is not needed, but I swapped all the is/isnot (!) to be correct from your code, and it didn’t work for me.

this is working absolutely perfectly for me.

add_action( 'admin_init', 'redirect_admin' );
function redirect_admin() {
    if ( ! current_user_can( 'administrator' ) && ! (defined( 'DOING_AJAX' ) && DOING_AJAX ) ){
        wp_redirect( "http://www.cultshare.co.uk/404.php");
        exit;
    }
}
