Work in a Stable Local Authority which Has made no cuts in the last 2 years
A London based Local Authority is looking to take on a Head of Service to provide leadership to its Safeguarding and Family Support service. This is largely a stable service where over the course of the last year a large number of permanent hires have been made and the use of agency staff has dropped. This has really consolidated the service as managers are now not having to take time out of their days to conduct interviews and can really focus on supporting their staff.
As a member of the Senior Management team you will be providing Strategic Management and will have the opportunity to really develop the service. You will be supported by an extremely experienced Assistant Director who has been in post for a number of years and has themselves played a large role in the recent success of the authorities' front line services. In turn you will be managing 6 - 8 Team Managers, with the majority of these also employed on a permanent contract.
Over the course of the last 2 years the Local Authority hasn't made any cuts to its Social Care budget demonstrating the LA's commitment to its service users and staff alike.
To be considered for this post you should have extensive management experience in Children's Services, which includes management at a strategic level and budget responsibilities.
