Are you looking for an exciting role within the Adults Commissioning department? This role could be for you!
Our department is looking for someone to lead and support the management, implementation, and monitoring of both specific and cross-cutting commissioning intentions and implementation plans.
You’ll be responsible for coordinating and facilitating the involvement of stakeholders to ensure that service providers, commissioners, service users, and their carers have a strong voice in all areas of service planning, commissioning, and the delivery of services using co-production as an integral part of their approach wherever appropriate.
Please note this role does not attract sponsorship.
About you
We are looking for someone with demonstrable knowledge of key aspects of the Commissioning Cycle as well as knowledge of key legislative requirements relevant to the role.
You’ll need to be an effective communicator, able to influence others and develop positive relationships with a range of partners and stakeholders, and motivate teams in accepting and embracing change.
This is a vital role where you will need to be able to analyze and manipulate data to produce information products in order to inform strategies and plans and be self-sufficient in the use of Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Database Creation, and Internet research.
If you have a positive, solution-focused, and innovative approach to work tasks and want the opportunity to contribute to improving the quality and effectiveness of the services we provide to residents within Luton, this is the job for you!
About us
Our ambitious Luton 2040 Vision – that no one in Luton will have to live in poverty – is at the heart of everything we do. We recognize that our people are remarkable, talented, committed, and passionate about serving our residents.
The people of Luton depend heavily on this council – and that means our workforce! Are you ready to realize the remarkable and help us deliver our vision?
Application Process
Because of the nature of this job, it will be necessary for the appropriate level of criminal record disclosure to be undertaken. This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore applicants are required to declare all unspent cautions and convictions; and also any adult cautions (simple or conditional), and spent convictions that are not protected as defined by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (as amended in 2020). A person’s criminal record will not in itself prevent a person from being appointed to this post. Applicants will not be refused posts because of offences which are not relevant to, and do not place them at or make them a risk in, the role for which they are applying. However, in the event of the employment being taken up, any failure to disclose such offence, as detailed above, will result in dismissal or disciplinary action by the Authority.
