**What’s in it for you**:
At Dorset Council, we prioritise our employees' growth, well-being, and satisfaction. As an Assistant Contracts Officer, you will have the opportunity to engage with a diverse range of tasks, ensuring every day is different and challenging. You'll work closely with experienced Contracts Officers, gaining insights and honing your skills.

Being at the heart of council operations, your work will directly influence the provision and efficiency of services to the local community. Plus, with a commitment to your continuous professional development, Dorset Council is where your potential meets opportunity.

The Quality, Contracts and Purchasing Service pulls together the key elements of contract management and oversight of care and support services in Dorset and makes sure that these are matched to people who have assessed Care Act needs.

We have invested heavily in this team and are looking for people who are motivated, enjoy a challenge and want the opportunity to work across the Health and Social Care Services to make a real difference to people receiving care and support in the community.

**What you will be doing**:
Your role will be multifaceted and essential to the directorate's function. You'll support other Contracts Officers in contracting and monitoring arrangements for various services. Managing low to medium value contracts, you'll ensure compliance with Contract Procedure Regulations.

You'll be a point of advice and support for providers, commissioning teams, and in complex situations, offering solutions and insights. From assisting in the development of contractual arrangements to representing the council in routine negotiations, your contribution will be indispensable in ensuring the directorate achieves its objectives.

With us, your work doesn't just stop at contracts; you'll undertake project work, attend meetings, and ensure the safeguarding and welfare of children and young people when working within the Children’s Services Directorate.

**About you**:
The Quality Assurance and Contract Monitoring teams function is the primary team that ensures that commissioned services are quality led to evidence best practice and delivered within the contractual requirements of the Council and Integrated Care Board. We are looking for people who are self-motivated, analytical, with a good understanding what quality in care and support services looks like.

You will be allocated a portfolio of commissioned regulated and non
- regulated care and support providers assessing both quality and contract compliance on behalf of the Council. Attention to detail, good interpersonal skills and confidence in leading and delivering a programme of contract management processes will be key to the success of these posts.
