About us
Enable Support Services is a growing adult social care provider delivering supported living and community support services across Somerset. We support people to live safely, independently and with dignity.
As the organisation continues to develop, we are looking to strengthen the way we use business systems, workforce information and operational data to support effective management, compliance, financial control and decision-making.
This is an important role for someone who understands the adult social care sector and can help ensure that key business information is accurate, consistent, timely and useful.
About the role
We are looking for a practical and experienced Business Information Manager to support the effective use of our internal systems and management information across the organisation. You must be used to working in a small business where communication is key to success and you are able to be hands on and in the detail.
The role will work closely with operational managers, finance, HR, payroll and senior leaders to ensure that information is accurate, well-organised and used effectively to support workforce planning, rota assurance, payroll accuracy, compliance administration and business decision-making.
The successful candidate will have strong knowledge of the adult social care sector and experience using care management or workforce systems, including Access Care Planning and Nourish.
This role is not just about producing reports. It is about helping the organisation understand what the information is telling us, where there may be gaps or inconsistencies, and what needs to be improved.

- Identify gaps, inconsistencies or risks in system use, data recording and operational information.
- Assist with reporting on staff deployment, rota information, payroll checks, agency usage, training compliance, supervision compliance, annual leave, absence and other workforce-related information.
- Work with finance and payroll colleagues where system information links to contracted hours, worked hours, rota information, mileage, expenses or payroll validation.
- Support managers to use information more confidently and consistently.
- Help develop simple processes for checking, validating and improving business information.
- Provide written summaries and practical recommendations for managers and senior leaders.
- Maintain confidentiality and comply with GDPR and information governance requirements.
- Support improvement projects linked to business systems, workforce reporting, compliance administration and operational control.
