Family Hubs are part of Kent County Council’s offer to support to children and young people, aged 0-19 (25 SEND), and their families. Family Hubs are a place where the whole family can access advice, support and guidance. Our local Family Hubs offer a broad and integrated
range of early help services for families, which include midwifery, health visiting, parenting support and activities for children and young people. We have 56 Family Hubs across Kent, where we operate alongside our partners to support local communities.
**About the Role**
We are looking for a Business Support Assistant to be based in our Edenbridge District. The role is for 2 days per week 8.30am - 4.30pm.

You will be required to act confidently as the first point of contact for staff, visitors and partners in this multi-agency environment, and support the opening and closing of hubs as required.
You will be required to support Health & Safety processes and report and monitor any building faults.
You will be responsible for handling sensitive information, checking and recording data, as well as liaising with colleagues to arrange a variety of meetings.
The role is varied and interesting and we can offer opportunities for personal training and development within the service.
You will be part of a wider West Kent team offering support to colleagues and service users from 8:30am to 16:30pm Monday to Friday.
