Head of Service
9 months ago
About the role
This Head of Service role has a primary focus on hospital discharge and the
Council’s relationships with health colleagues. We aim to facilitate timely discharge,
achieving the best outcomes for people in Cambridgeshire, and supporting
them to live at home, in their communities for as long as possible. You will
report to a Service Director in our Adults, Health and Commissioning
directorate where you will have a supportive peer group of Heads of Service
covering various service areas.
What will you be doing?
You will provide leadership to the Transfer of Care Service and other adult
social care functions, as needed. You will be highly visible across the wider
health and social care system, developing and maintaining key relationships to
drive forwards our ambitions to work closer to communities with a ‘home first’
approach. You will lead operationally as well as strategically to ensure that
the service is safe and effective while always driving forward improvement,
including influencing wider system change. You will ensure your services are
ready for CQC assurance and aspire to the highest of practice standards at all
times
About you
You will be an authentic leader with social work values at the centre of all
you do. You must be able to quickly understand and work within the wider
system priorities and complexities, using your skills to navigate barriers and
maximise opportunities to drive towards ever improved outcomes for the
people the service supports. You will operate with absolute clarity about
adult social care’s role and responsibilities, including the boundaries around
those and where the responsibility of other partners sits. You will be
committed to leading a diverse and inclusive service where all colleagues
feel supported and have a voice, and you will demonstrate this at all time
in your own behaviours.
