We will provide you with an environment where social work can flourish, with high support, high challenge and manageable caseloads. Children’s Services is proud of its workforce, who are committed, dedicated, and work to a high standard. We are seeking other like minded practitioners who would like to join us. We pride ourselves on building relationships with families and partners and hold respectful practice at the centre of all we do.

The Commissioning and Partnership Service ensures that good quality, value-for-money services are in place for children and families that meet their needs wherever possible close to home, school, family and friends. The service leads on the development of strong and effective partnership working across agencies, working collaboratively with the health sector and with other Children’s Services and Trusts across the region.

What is the job role?

The post of Commissioner plays a pivotal role in delivering the region’s strategic objectives of ensuring there is enough good quality provision to meet children’s needs, developing innovative and outcome-based models, and achieving excellence and value for money for children and young people. Working with the Commissioning Hub Manager you will deliver a focused work programme that will provide direction for the team’s work over this period.
