About us and the role
Warwickshire County Council is moving at pace to deliver an ambitious vision for transforming Care and Support for Adults, Children and Young People; and their families. Our People Strategy and Commissioning Service has been re-designed to deliver a challenging all age portfolio of projects across Public Health and Social Care; supporting models of integrated delivery focused on assets and strengths, improving outcomes and preventing escalation of need.
To complete our Service, we are recruiting to a number of roles within key portfolio areas. We are looking for people who are committed to commissioning high quality services through innovative ideas and practice. We are therefore welcoming applications from candidates with experience in either the public or the private sector – with knowledge of the complexity of the current health and social care landscape.
Successful candidates will be intellectually agile and able to drive the development of best value, best quality, joined up services for our most vulnerable citizens. You will be experienced in working across organisational boundaries; and with citizens to deliver successful outcomes.
This post provides an exciting opportunity to be an integral part of a newly-formed team focusing on the delivery of high-quality Care Accommodation for Older People and Working Age Adults. To help achieve this, a new role has been created that will see the successful applicant working collaboratively with our current providers operating within WCC’s growing Extra Care Housing programme to ensure the Council’s strategic objectives and customer outcomes continue to be delivered. The role also offers the opportunity for ‘on the job’ learning as the applicant will also be required and supported to develop and maintain collaborative partnerships working with current and prospective Developers/Registered Providers (RPs/RSLs), Homes England, Housing and Planning Authorities, elected members, Town and Parish Councils, the NHS and WCC operational colleagues and customers in order to deliver a sustainable and vibrant model of Extra Care Housing/Specialised Housing with Care across Warwickshire long into the future.
