Do you want to play a key role in supporting services that make a real difference every day?
At Hft, our vision is simple: a future where people with learning disabilities can live the best life possible. We do this by working together to create positive change, delivering personalised support, and building solutions that enable people to live as independently as possible.
This role sits at the heart of that work. As a Business Support Officer, you’ll help keep our services running effectively behind the scenes—making sure our teams have the systems, information and support they need to focus on what matters most.
The Opportunity
You’ll be part of a regional Business Support team, working closely with local service leadership to provide reliable, timely and high-quality support across a range of activities. From finance and data to office coordination and colleague support, you’ll bring organisation, consistency and attention to detail—helping to connect processes and ensure everything runs smoothly day to day.
This is a varied role where no two days are the same. You’ll work across systems, people and processes, acting as a key point of coordination within your local area while being part of a wider, supportive regional team.
This is a part time opportunity working 22.5 hours per week

Supporting financial processes
• Supporting invoicing, purchase orders and recharges
• Processing transactions such as expenses, mileage and cash advances
• Assisting with income returns and local banking
• Managing petty cash and credit card reconciliations
• Supporting fundraising income and restricted funds
• Providing administrative support for aged debt and related processes
Keeping the office running effectively
You’ll work closely with local managers to support day-to-day operations, including:
• Responding to queries and directing requests appropriately
• Managing incoming and outgoing post
• Welcoming visitors and liaising with contractors
• Supporting meetings with notes, minutes and documentation
• Logging compliments and complaints
• Ordering and maintaining office supplies
• Helping ensure the office environment is safe, organised and well maintained
• Supporting travel and accommodation arrangements where needed
• Maintaining accurate records in line with GDPR and data protection standards
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for someone who is organised, adaptable and enjoys supporting others.
• A good standard of education, including GCSE Maths and English (or equivalent)
• Experience or interest in business administration (or a willingness to work towards a Level 3 qualification)
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to manage a range of tasks
• Confidence working across systems and processes
• A collaborative approach and willingness to support others
• Flexibility to respond to changing priorities in a busy environment
Why join us?
Hft is a values-led organisation where people genuinely support each other. You’ll be part of a team that works collaboratively, shares knowledge, and is focused on continuous improvement.
This is a role where your contribution really matters—supporting the people and processes that enable high-quality care and support every day.
