The team are responsible for supporting customers who live in the community in the East Cambs geographical area, giving the ability to develop working relationships with customers, their families, and our providers.

The role also involves covering the teams duty function on a rota basis and managing a diverse range of service users queries or urgent case work management.

Your curiosity should also mean that you enjoy keeping up to date with current good practice, doing relevant research and building your own knowledge.

Join us and you’ll find a challenging and highly rewarding career in social care, where you’ll have every opportunity to make a positive difference to people’s lives.

Experience or a willingness to work with a variety of partner organisations is vital to working in this team and you'll need to enjoy networking and influencing others to see things differently. You will be able to work autonomously and have the flexibility to manage your own workload in a hybrid way that allows you to work from the office base at least twice a week and from home.

Most of all, you put the individual at the heart of everything and you ensure their choices are being respected and supported.

We are a supportive service, we are passionate about development, we embrace flexible working, and facilitate opportunities for our workforce to showcase their strengths and thrive.
