**What’s in it for you**:
Dorset is a stunning corner of the UK, regularly featuring amongst the most beautiful of counties. We have a population, on average, much older than the rest of the country: a fantastic body of energy for vibrant community activities across our towns, villages, coastline and countryside. But of course, that’s a population that also needs support with ageing. Together with a significant population of adults of working age with support needs, Dorset is a place where getting the right support, at the right time, and in the right place, is absolutely fundamental to helping all of our people to live their idea of “A Better Life” - and that’s why we built our adult social care strategies on that vision.

We have an opportunity for a Project Support officer to join the Adults & Housing directorate Programme Management Office to support delivery of the directorates transformation programme.

Adult Social Care and Housing in Dorset is transforming as it faces new and more complex challenges. Through our programme, we will look to deliver change that helps us to create a more thriving and dynamic directorate that meets our challenges head on. We are working with our partners, communities, and residents to help transform Adult Social Care & Housing in Dorset.

Our ambition is to work with people to identify their strengths, to help them realise their potential and live independently and well in their communities.

This is an exciting opportunity to help drive forward transformation across Adult Social Care & Housing that makes a real difference to people’s lives.

**What you can expect to be doing**:
You will be supporting key programmes and projects within the wider portfolio, working closely with Operational and Commissioning colleagues from across Adult Social Care & Housing, as well as other stakeholders both internally in the Council and external, such as our partners across Health, Police, Fire, Voluntary & Community Sector etc.

The Directorate has an exciting vision to transform Adult Social Care & Housing in Dorset and you will play a vital role in ensuring the successful delivery of this.

You will form part of the Adults Programme Management Office, who work hand-in-hand with colleagues across the directorate providing the project management disciplines, support and controls required to ensure the successful delivery of programmes.

**About you**:
The postholder will be required to monitor, track and support the successful delivery of projects within the wider Transformation portfolio. This postholder will assist in the overall planning, coordination and control of projects, using appropriate and proportionate project management disciplines to support. The role plays a vital role, working with the project manager and wider business leads to help ensure the successful delivery of projects.

**Dorset Council: A great place to work**:
