About the role

We are looking for three full-time (37 hours per week) Business Officers to join our team, providing administrative and financial support within Children's Services.

One permanent post based in Cambridge supporting the Family Support & Safeguarding Team. One permanent post based in Ely supporting the Family Support & Safeguarding Team. And one full-time fixed-term post based in Ely until May 2027 supporting the Corporate Parenting Team.

This is a varied role and requires a flexible and adaptable approach. Duties will include:

Handling telephone calls, correspondence and communications in a variety of formats.
Data entry, analysis and maintaining records using Excel and internal databases.
Preparing papers and reports for meetings and distributing documentation.
Taking minutes at statutory meetings.
Raising and processing invoices.
Updating children's records on internal systems.
Liaising with external partners and agencies.
Providing administrative support to Social Workers and Team Managers.

You will need strong administrative skills and the ability to prioritise competing demands in a fast-paced environment, often working to statutory deadlines. Excellent communication and customer service skills are essential, as you will regularly liaise with external partners, including the Police, Health Services and Schools.

You will be able to work on your own initiative, remain calm under pressure and manage tight deadlines effectively. A methodical approach, attention to detail and strong organisational skills are key to success in this role.

You should have a good working knowledge of Microsoft Office applications, particularly Word and Excel, and experience using databases.

Please note that you do not need to meet every essential criterion to apply. We welcome applications from enthusiastic individuals who are keen to learn and develop their skills.

Closing date: 19 July 2026 at midnight.

Interviews: Wednesday 29 July 2026 at Fawcett House, Trumpington, Cambridge.

About us

Cambridgeshire is a great place to work and live with a diverse population, an urban centre in Cambridge, historic Isle of Ely, Huntingdon and St Ives as well as more rural landscapes.

Our four values are central to our culture, driving everything we do.

We are proud to serve the diverse communities of Cambridgeshire and want our workforce to be reflective of this diversity, which we firmly believe benefits our colleagues, the organisation and our communities. If you don’t meet every single requirement in the job role but think this could be you, please don’t be put off. We are committed to building a workplace that is compassionate and inclusive as well as diverse, so if you think you could be a good candidate for this role please consider applying and speak to the recruiting manager if you have any questions.

Our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy, along with our employee network 'IDEAL' and self-organised peer support groups help us to foster an inclusive, supportive and safe working environment where people feel valued, respected, and empowered. We collect relevant diversity data for monitoring as part of the recruitment process to understand the diversity of our applicants and monitor any trends throughout the recruitment processes so that we can take meaningful action.

We are proud to be a Disability Confident Leader. We fully support providing reasonable adjustments throughout our recruitment process, as well as when you join us, and we encourage candidates to contact the Hiring Manager, whose details can be found in the advert, to discuss any adjustment needs. Through a Guaranteed Interview Scheme, we will offer an interview to all applicants who disclose a disability and meet the essential criteria for a job vacancy. On your application form you can indicate you are disabled. Some examples of reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process could include additional time to complete an assessment or printing a document on pastel coloured paper with larger font size and line spacing. We would value talking about what might be possible to enable you to join us and thrive, so if there is something that would help you to do your best during your journey with us, please get in touch.
