7 months ago
At Swindon Borough Council, we want our town to be the best it can be. Our ambitious vision is supported by realistic transformation programmes, with the people of Swindon at their heart. Because that’s who we’re doing it for - the communities and businesses that make our town great. As part of the Council, you’ll support a friendly local authority making decisions with real impact. It’s all for better public services. Better processes. And a better quality of life, for everyone. Join us, and Swindon will be better with you.
The Commissioning Team in Adults is a vibrant and ever changing place to work where there are opportunities to make a real difference to the lives of adults with needs.
The team works at pace and works through its close working relationships with social workers, the provider market, health and wider partners, as well as residents of Swindon.
As a member of the team you will need to be able to build relationships and be able to respond to changing priorities and have great communication skills in a team that works closely together to support one another.
Quotes from team members
“Working for within Adult Commissioning is a rewarding career and allows you to make a real difference in the lives of the local community and to give the people of Swindon a voice along with quality services to meet Swindon’s ever changing needs.”
“No two days are the same and knowing that your contribution can make a difference to a person life is a good feeling.”
“It’s nice to work in a team where everyone is so willing and helpful. I know that when I am struggling, I can always turn to the rest of my team to give me the support I need.”
“A really knowledgeable and supportive team”
Your next role
As a Broker, you will be working with social care practitioners to procure packages of care and support from a range of specialist providers in Swindon, ensuring packages of care and put into place within a timely and efficient manner to ensure the necessary support for vulnerable adults in line with the Care Act.
It will require a flexible approach in order to manage a busy workload and prioritise work requiring an immediate response based on risk and need.
A knowledge of providers or services would be an asset but an attention to detail and ability to maintain relationships will be the key skills required.
You must be fluent in the English language (as a requirement of Part 7 of the Immigration Act “for the effective performance of a customer-facing role”).
Your next package
Please see our Rewards and Benefits offer for more details.
For Swindon to thrive in the future, we need to lay the foundations now. It’s why our regeneration and transformation programmes are already underway. So, you’ll be joining us at an exciting time on our journey. We’ll look to you to share your knowledge, influence decisions and drive real, positive change. With your contributions, we’ll achieve our vision of a prosperous, re-vitalised Swindon by 2030 together. And you’ll be proud to say it was made better with you.
