PossAbilities is not your typical social enterprise. We’re an award-winning, not-for-profit organisation supporting people with learning disabilities to live the life they choose - with joy, creativity, and purpose.
We’ve just been named one of the Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2025. We have created a ‘can-do’ culture, which is highly entrepreneurial, low on bureaucracy and non-corporate and we’re growing fast: from 220 staff in 2014 to nearly 770 today, with a forecast turnover of £28M. It’s also tremendous fun. Our HQ can be awash with animals from our farm and people with learning disabilities pop in and out of offices whether invited or not, ensuring that the place resonates with the sound of laughter.
Now, we’re looking for a Business Development Director to lead our next phase of expansion. You’ll be a strategic thinker, deal maker and opportunity hunter, driving growth through new contracts, partnerships, and innovative housing solutions. If you’re commercially sharp with an entrepreneurial mind-set, have significant experience of procurement and commissioning, superb at building relationships, and ready to help us scale without losing our quirky, fun-loving culture - this is your moment.
