About the role
Our Business Officer role is an important one, at the heart of the high-quality care and service we provide across Prevention and Early Intervention.

Candidates will need to be comfortable with a flexible approach to tasks and be proactive in solving problems and engage positively with internal and external colleagues, partners, and providers.
We adopt a hybrid and flexible approach to work so, once trained, you will be able to work some of your days from an appropriate office location and home environment. Your office base will be determined on appointment, but will include offices in Cambridge, Huntingdon, St Ives, March, and Ely. We have hours to suit as our evolving Prevention & Early Intervention Service runs over 7 days, and so if you would like to work weekends, please let us know.
