Peterborough, Peterborough, United Kingdom Colbern Limited Full time

NCD
Senior Commissioning Officer
Alconbury
Contract
£307.69 per day PAYE or £400 per day Limited paid via Umbrella Company Inside IR35

Our client is looking for an experienced Senior Commissioning Officer.

New Shire Hall in Alconbury or Stanton House in Huntingdon (until it closes). Negotiable and dependent on work/support needed but could be 1 or 2 days in office
Duration of assignment: 12 weeks - possible extension
Working hours: 37 hours Monday to Friday


The role will provide additional support at a higher level than currently available from Commissioning Officers to enable the Commissioning Manager to successfully manage a much larger portfolio of Children's commissioned provision and strategies than currently allocated.

Not only does the role add capacity, but it also provides an enhanced skillset, allowing the Commissioning Manager to delegate more complex tasks to the P1 that they could not give to the Commissioning Officer.

In turn, this gives the Commissioning Manager capacity to take on additional projects within his/her portfolio. The growth in portfolio is due to additional departmental priorities introduced by the Joint Administration.

Working as part of a Commissioning Team, the key results of the job include:

  • Ensuring sufficient, affordable, quality care provision is available locally both now and, in the future
  • Implementing innovations in the way the council commissions care for local people to increase choice and control (e.g. more selfdirected support such as direct payments and individual service funds)
Knowledge of key policy, legislation and guidance relating to Children's commissioning
Awareness of local care and/or preventative provision and impact of market dynamics on the council

Ability to analyse a range of information and develop innovative, effective solutions

Ability to think strategically and consider impact of ideas on the wider system and over the long term
Ability to establish and maintain working relationships and work in collaboration with others to produce a shared outcome
Skilled in successfully negotiating solutions and problem solving within the context of working relationships

Contribute to driving forward the development and implementation of commissioning strategies

Ability to challenge ways of working and influence others
Capacity to manage change for self and others
Excellent written and oral communication skills, able to tailor style to a wide range of audiences
Excellent interpersonal and facilitative skills in 1:1 and group settings
Ability to work independently and manage own workload
Ability to manage multiple, sometimes competing priorities
Ability to meet challenging deadlines
Ability to problem solve on a wide range of issues and seek information & guidance to make an appropriate decision or recommend a course of action
Ability to develop project plans, drive and monitor progress and manage risk to ensure successful delivery of the end outcome
Good IT skills, proficiency in Microsoft Office, effective at data inputting, extraction and production of reports and presentations
