  • Ensuring continuous improvement of work processes to deliver efficient, cost effective adaptations and services across the HIA.
  • To actively support workers across the service to increase the number of Careline and AT referrals.
  • Ensuring effective liaison and communication with key partners in an integrated environment.
  • Work collaboratively with partner agencies to deliver cost effective, outcome focussed services (particularly adaptations and other prevention services) which meet local needs.
  • Establish and maintain systems for the supervision, support, performance monitoring and development of staff.
  • Lead the continuous improvement of the service, improving procedures, information and systems and ultimately the service for DFG recipients.
  • To be responsible for the operational delivery and development of a high quality service to customers in relation to all aspects of the work of Rochdale Home Improvement Agency.
  • Respond to and effectively deal with complaints from customers in relation to any part of the Home Improvement Agency work.
  • What skills do you Need?
