Do you have excellent customer services and IT skills with a passion for Social Care? If so, we’d love to hear from you.
We have an opportunity to join our South Norfolk team as a Reablement Liaison Officer.
Role Overview
In this role, you will be the first point of contact and an information service for GPs, community health services, social services, service users and their families.
