6 days ago


London, United Kingdom London Borough of Newham Full time

We are currently looking for a commissioner to join our Supporting Independence team. The portfolio covers our accommodation based services (£30m spend), including Supported living, Extra Care, Shared Lives, Rough Sleeping and Single Vulnerable Homeless.

If you have a passion for supporting vulnerable adults but never commissioned before, please research the commissioning cycle. The likelihood is that you will have done many elements of commissioning without realising and would be able to demonstrate transferable skills

You would be joining the team at a key and exciting time. Cabinet recently agreed the ambitious and transformation plan for this area and as a result the team capacity is being increased to take account of the work plan. In addition, there are also increasingly close links being made with our place based Integrated Care System, with a number of duties delegated to this team.

**TO APPLY**

**The supporting statement should demonstrate how you meet the relevant requirements listed in the person specification in the job description.**

Shortlisting decisions will be based on relevant experience and suitability for the role in line with the person specification, as described in the supporting statement and CV.
