Key information

We’re looking for a Business Services Co-ordinator to join us at Bowe Barn, Borrowdale in Cumbria. If you’re brilliant at organisation and creating order, and you love working with people, upholding high standards in service and presentation, then this could be the role for you. Internally, you'll be known as a Business Services Co-Ordinator (place based).

It’s an exciting time to join the team, as we’re shaping a new vision for Property Business Services and streamlining the way we support both our visitors and our colleagues.

You’ll be primarily based at the Bowe Barn and West Lakes offices, but you’ll also contribute to a cluster‑wide network of Business Services Coordinators. This includes monthly meetings, either online or in person, where we come together to share ideas, develop consistent ways of working, and support one another across the wider team.

About the role

  • Reporting to the Business Services Leads for the cluster of Cumbria and Central Lancashire, you’ll be part of a friendly, dynamic team primarily based at Borrowdale Bowe Barn Office, providing business services support to the countryside team, as well as assisting colleagues across the wider cluster.
  • Working as part of the Restore Nature team (based at Borrowdale Bowe Barn Office for 4 days per week, and 1 day per week at the West Lakes Office) you’ll often be the first point of contact at the office, via phone and email. 
  • You’ll also be responsible for accurate record keeping and data management, financial management and reporting: including banking and petty cash, purchasing, and supporting the team with compliance tasks and administration.
