5. To allocate all visits to enable rotas to be sent out each week within a specific deadline.

6. To effectively manage availability to maximise capacity requirements.

7. To minimise the volume of unallocated regular bookings to within the agreed base target and to ensure all work handed back is reallocated.

8. To maintain accurate and up to date information on the IT system in respect of live Customer and staff data, including all changes to Customer and staff information, as well as ensuring all relevant people including Customers are updated.

9. To develop good relationships with Community based staff, liaise with Customers, and Partners/Stakeholders/Commissioners in a professional manner, and to deliver excellent customer service.
