Huddersfield, Kirklees, United Kingdom Kirklees Council Full time

Community Support Specialist - Dewsbury Hub

Our organization values a fair recruitment process. Hiring managers will not have access to personal details, including your name and contact information, until after the shortlisting process is complete. This includes any uploaded CVs. Equality monitoring data is not available to hiring managers at any point. Organisation Kirklees Directorate Adults & Health Service Area Adults Social Care Operation Hours 37 Number of Positions 1 Location(s) Dewsbury and surrounding areas Position type Permanent Grade 10-11 Salary £35,745 - £41,418 Job Overview

We are seeking to appoint a Level 2 or Level 3 Community Support Specialist

Working in the field of social care presents both challenges and rewards. Your contributions can help individuals maintain their independence and exercise choice and control over their lives. In Kirklees, we strive to provide high-quality, personalized services.

Do you believe you can contribute to achieving personalized outcomes?

As a member of the Dewsbury Community Wellbeing Team, you will conduct initial assessments, reviews, and safeguarding inquiries for vulnerable individuals, collaborating with their informal and formal caregivers within the community. Depending on your experience, you may also engage in court-related work.

Your focus will be on adults aged 18 and over who have physical and sensory disabilities, as well as mental health needs. A strong, customer-centered approach is essential to alleviate the distress experienced by service users and to ensure positive outcomes.

You will participate in multi-agency collaboration with various health and social care professionals to secure the best results for individuals. A solid understanding of operational practices, legal frameworks, and evolving agendas impacting partners, particularly within the NHS, is crucial.

Your role will involve working with adults and caregivers to promote Self-Directed support and Self-Assessment, making eligibility determinations as outlined in the Care Act (2014), along with safeguarding responsibilities. Utilizing outcome-focused assessments and knowledge of the Mental Capacity Act, you will adopt a proactive approach to risk management.

Our team fosters a supportive environment; we have approachable managers who maintain an open-door policy, conduct regular advice sessions, and are receptive to feedback. We work collaboratively to support one another and share our expertise.

We are looking for a Community Support Specialist to join our team and thrive in a flexible and supportive setting at Level 2 or Level 3.

Working in social care is both challenging and fulfilling. With your assistance, individuals can remain independent longer and enjoy greater choice and control. In Kirklees, we are committed to delivering high-quality personalized services and seek passionate professionals dedicated to achieving personalized outcomes. Could this be you?

Please note that travel is a necessary component of this role, and it would be challenging to perform effectively without regular access to a vehicle.
