London, United Kingdom lga Full time

**Fixed term or secondment opportunity until August 2024 (Maternity leave cover)**

**About us**

The Local Government Association (LGA) is the national membership body for local authorities. We work on behalf of our member councils to support, promote and improve local government.

We are a politically led, cross-party organisation that works on behalf of councils to ensure local government has a strong, credible voice with national government. We influence and set the political agenda on the issues that matter to councils to help them deliver local solutions to national problems.

We also provide councils with the tools and resources to respond to challenges present and emerging, and support improvement across the sector.

About the Partners in Care and Health programme (PCH)

The Local Government Association and Association of Directors of Adult Social Services are Partners in Care and Health (PCH) working with well-respected organisations. PCH helps councils to improve the way they deliver adult social care and public health services and helps Government understand the challenges faced by the sector.
The programme is a trusted network for developing and sharing best practice, developing tools and techniques, providing support and building connections. It is funded by Government and offered to councils without charge.

**About **ADASS**

The Association of Directors of Adult Services (ADASS) exists to represent and support its membership of DASSs and their management teams. ADASS is also a charity which gives a national voice for social care. ADASS and the LGA work together as partners to lead PCH.

**About the role**

The role is available as a fixed-term or secondment opportunity. This is a pivotal time to join the Better Care Fund Support Programme team within Partners in Care and Health, which is part of the LGA’s improvement arm. The team recently secured multiple-year funding from the Better Care Fund to develop and deliver an expanded range of improvement support to councils and their partners in the NHS and beyond (such as care providers, the voluntary sector and housing) in the high-profile, dynamic area of health and care integration.

We are seeking a lead adviser, to provide maternity leave cover, to join the Better Care Fund Support Programme team. The team’s focus is on delivering a new programme in partnership with strategic partners, the consultancy Newton Europe and the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services. Our aim is to support health and care systems to accelerate and embed their integrated care ambitions as well as address demand, demographic, performance and epidemiologic challenges to improve integrated working and person-led outcomes, maximise value and spread learning and good practice sustainably. Some of our priority areas include population health and prevention, Home First approaches to hospital discharge, and integrated person-led intermediate care.

**About you**

In this critical senior role, you will bring your skills, knowledge and recent operational experience in health or local government to design and organise sector-led improvement activity to councils and NHS partners via local, regional and national programmes. Central to the role is the ability to develop positive relationships and speak up for the sector, as the roles include being able to engage directly with national bodies, regional groups and councils, and offer advice and support where required.

As well as working directly with local health and care systems, you will also work alongside and influence national partners such as the Department of Health and Social Care, the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, and NHS bodies. This includes identifying and sharing best practice and ensuring the voice of local government is heard in national discussions, as well as developing national publications and tools.

You will be a critical thinker and problem-solver. You will bring the understanding, experience and drive necessary to begin making a positive impact from day one. Experience of commissioning, improvement or policy work and/or operational management in adult social care and/or health is essential as well as the ability to produce briefings and to contribute to the analysis, design and delivery of support products. Partnership working and a flair for managing a fluid workload, in a fast-paced environment, will be keys to your success, and you will have exceptional relationship building and influencing skills. You will also be expert at developing compelling narratives and sharp analysis to help develop alliances for change. With strong knowledge of health, care and local government, you will bring the expertise to support sector-led improvement across health and social care. In return, you will enjoy a stimulating and varied personal workload, be a key member of an enthusiastic and dedicated expert team, and benefit from clear, enabling leadership.
