Overview
We are looking to recruit two brand new key senior roles that will shape and lead our adult social care, housing needs and commissioning services. The roles will give you the opportunity to build on our existing strong foundations and transform our models of care and support. Our borough aims to grow its economy and become an economic centre of activity, ensuring great opportunities for our local population. Our borough is a warm and friendly place to live and work with a real sense of community and togetherness. We are proud of the Care Quality Commission assessment that rated our services as good and we are excited to move to the next stage of development.
If you are considering a new challenge and are an experienced, energetic senior manager in adult social care, these posts could be what you have been waiting for.
One role will focus on the senior leadership of our in-house social care provider and all age social care commissioning functions. The second will focus on the leadership of our social work and housing needs services.
Both roles will require you to creatively shape and implement strategies across health and social care. They will provide a great opportunity to lead your teams to ensure we thoughtfully use our resources to make a real difference to the lives of local people, addressing inequalities and taking an asset-based approach to all we do.
