**Commissioner**

18-month Fixed Term Contract

Kent County Council is looking to recruit a Commissioner for a fixed term 18-month role.

Kent adopted the principle of Kent becoming a Family Hub Transformation Authority, alongside delivery of Start for Life Programme.

The Commissioner will work in a newly formed Integrated Health Commissioning Team to support the Senior Commissioner to scope, co-design and commission a number of Start for Life Services.

The postholder will be responsible for the professional delivery of all commissioning activities within the commissioning cycle.

The Commissioners will play a key role in ensuring that the local authority commissioning activities are evidence based and provide value for money via an agreed commissioning plan that meets the needs of the citizens in Kent. They will work closely with the Senior Commissioner and the Commercial Team to ensure their agreed portfolio of work meets the council’s processes and policies.

Applicants should possess a high level of organisational skills with the ability to work at pace, prioritising their workload to meet deadlines.

This role is hybrid: working from home with an element of office working from Invicta House in Maidstone or other local KCC offices.

This post is considered by KCC to be a customer-facing position. The Council therefore has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) to ensure that post holders have a command of spoken English/Welsh sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the Job Description/Person Specification.
