What you’ll do:
An enthusiastic, motivated and excellent communicator, you’ll take responsibility for the schemes within 2-3 district council areas, working with partners to promote Extra Care Housing and co-ordinating referrals and chairing panel meetings. The job may include the requirement to undertake occasional Care Act assessments and some case management, and you will also play a key role in supporting commissioning colleagues with contract management and service development for the schemes in your area.
You’ll play a key role in developing Extra Care Housing within Hampshire, supporting our vision and 5-year strategy to help people to live long, healthy and happy lives, with the maximum possible independence.
What we’re looking for:
With a strong care management background, you’ll have proven experience of working with, and giving advice to colleagues, individuals, families and carers, and experience of inputting case recording systems.
Using your customer-focused approach and your excellent verbal and written communication skills, you’ll build relationships internally and with external stakeholders including housing providers, care providers, health, and the voluntary sector.
You may be required to visit other locations within Hampshire and the Isle of Wight or other local authority, and therefore need to have the ability to travel, as necessary.
