Senior Strategic Improvement Coach

1 month ago

Stirling, United Kingdom University of Stirling Full time

Location: Stirling Campus

The Post

IMPACT is the UK centre for implementing evidence in adult social care, funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and the Health Foundation. IMPACT draws on knowledge from different types of research, the lived experience of people who draw on care and support and carers, and the practice knowledge of social care staff.

IMPACT ‘Demonstrators’ focus on a large, strategic issue in a host organisation or local system, helping to get evidence of what works used in practice to make a difference to services and to people’s lives. They involve using change management, organisational development and leadership skills to bring about evidence-informed change, in partnership with people who draw on care and support, families, social care services and policy makers.

Each Demonstrator is typically supported by two Senior Strategic Improvement Coaches. In each pair of coaches, one appointee will often have a background in strategy / improvement and have experience of applied research, organisational development or behavioural science. The other may well have experience of drawing on care, being a carer or working in front-line roles. We recognise that we all have multiple aspects to our identity, and that some candidates may bring a combination of these different backgrounds and experiences.

Description of Duties

  • Supported by IMPACT’s national Demonstrator lead, lead negotiation with the Demonstrator site regarding what support will be provided by IMPACT and how this will complement the local site’s responsibilities (the ‘contracting’ process)
  • Guided by IMPACT’s national Demonstrator lead, review and synthesise the evidence on the topic in question
  • Work with local stakeholders to design the change project and articulate a local ‘theory of change’ to help structure the project. [This will set out key features of the current context, the change process, expected outputs and outcomes, and the underlying assumptions of how change will be achieved]
  • Facilitate the change project on the ground, bringing together key stakeholders from across the local site to design, deliver and sustain local change

Essential Criteria

  • First degree OR equivalent professional qualification OR sufficient practical experience to demonstrate relevant knowledge and skills
  • Senior experience as a manager or practitioner, or as an applied researcher, management consultant or improvement coach in relevant fields
  • Extensive experience of leading and designing strategic improvement projects within adult social care or in a field relevant to adult social care
  • Demonstrable commitment to the values of co-production and knowledge of how to embed these values in practice
