Worthing, United Kingdom WSCC Full time

**About Us**
The context for West Sussex County Council is changing. Increasing demographic pressures, continuing challenges to provide residents and communities with greater levels of choice and control over services, and the tighter financial constraints placed on the authority, mean that the Council needs to change the way it operates. Effective business management develops and delivers support to the Children, Young People and Learning Directorate and enables it to operate as an effective and efficient service.

There is a strong focus on improvement across the service and real desire to enhance outcomes for customers, performance, driving efficiencies and providing best value for money for residents. During a period of great change, an organisation needs support functions that are able to provide the right advice, approaches and understanding throughout the transformation period and into the future.
