About the role
We are looking for a proactive and experienced Business Support Manager to support the delivery of our new five year Strategic Plan.
This exciting new role will act as the bridge between our Operations and Central Services. It's a unique opportunity to shape how these functions work together to achieve our organisational goals more effectively.

This role will lead the Business Support function, working closely with the Operations Director team to ensure the smooth running of this UK wide operations function. You will oversee the provision and ongoing development of support services to enable TCV Operations teams throughout the organisation to focus on the core elements of operational delivery and development. The role will be responsible for looking for ongoing improvements in efficiencies and effectiveness, supporting innovation whilst balancing national consistency and adapting to local needs.
There is flexibility around the location of this role - you can be homebased or office based with some national/UK-wide travel. Our Head Office is in Doncaster.
To fulfil the role, you must be resident in the UK and have the right to work in the UK.
