An exciting opportunity has arisen for three newAdult Support Coordinators to join us within the Prevention and Early Intervention Services. One post will be based in the Adult Early Help Team and twoin our Assessment Team

Adult Support Co-ordinators play a major part of the work we do in our Teams. You'll be working with adults and older people in need of care and support services, along with their informal carers. It will be crucial that you work in partnership with them in order to establish needs and ensure they're met.

The Adult Early Help Team is the front door to Adult Social Care and look to provide advice, guidance and onward referrals to enable people to remain independent in their communities.

The Prevention and Early Intervention Assessment team provide support to those adults who have had a period of Reablement or Intermediate Care team support. We also provide Carers Assessments to those in informal caring roles who's cared for person is not in receipt of statutory services.

Our teams are multidisciplinary and offer support to individuals and also to families and carers. The team work closely to support and share information on prevention services across the county.

You won't need to have a social work qualification but knowledge, experience and understanding of the needs of vulnerable adults will be essential to succeed in the role. Working knowledge and experience of the Care Act, Mental Capacity Act and Cambridgeshire County Council's Adult Social Care policies and procedures will also be an advantage, particularly around wellbeing and outcomes.

We know that your time is precious, so our interviews are generally held virtually, by Microsoft Teams, to provide the most flexible recruitment process. We may include a virtual assessment as part of this, but we'll give you all of the relevant information ahead of time.
