About the Role
As a Housing and Support Assistant, you will play a crucial role in delivering high-quality housing and support services to our residents.

Our mission? To champion human factors, set the gold standard for the discipline and support our members with professional development and engagement with a thriving community. Join us and meet some amazing people.
About us
We’re the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics & Human Factors (CIEHF) and what we do is pretty special. We’re the only professional body in the world that can award the Chartered Ergonomist qualification (yes, the only one). You’d be part of a small but mighty team that’s passionate about making a difference in human factors. It’s a role where you’ll get variety, responsibility and the chance to help shape what we do.
The role
We’re on the lookout for a Member Services Officer to join our team full‑time in the Midlands. It’s a role that mixes customer service, organisation and a bit of creativity:
- You’ll be answering member questions and making sure they feel supported.
- Keeping records neat and tidy (because details matter).
- Helping us spread the word with member communications and marketing.
- Pulling together reports that keep us on track.
- And you’ll get to help run our online events, bringing our community together.
What we’re looking for
We don’t expect you to tick every single box, but here’s what would make you shine:
- A natural communicator who enjoys connecting with people from all walks of life.
- Customer service experience - you’re proactive, solutions‑focused and not easily flustered.
- Comfortable with numbers: you’ll be handling membership fees and putting together basic financial reports.
- Organised, collaborative and good at juggling tasks.
- Tech‑savvy with CRM systems and office tools.
- Bonus points if you’ve worked with membership organisations before (but it’s not a deal‑breaker).
We have regular team meetings in the West Midlands so you'll need to be based within reasonable travelling distance. Ideally, too, you'll have a valid driving licence.
