Salary: £81,174 – £89,956 plus relocation support and pay award pending from 1st April 2025 Location: York/Hybrid Employer: City of York Council One City for All Welcome, and thank you for your interest in learning more about City of York Council and this exciting role. As Corporate Director of Adult Social Care and Integration, I have recently moved to York, and I have been struck by how much there is to be proud of in this beautiful and historic city. York is ambitious, progressive and sustainable – but it is also a very inclusive city, giving the highest priority to the wellbeing of its residents. The majority of our residents are generally healthy and are living well, but we know this is not the case for everyone – and so in this role I am looking for a strategic leader who will be passionate about working closely with our partners so that everyone in York is able to enjoy the best possible health and wellbeing. It is vital that we work closely with others to make sure this happens, and so you will be working alongside our partner organisations in the integrated care system as well as colleagues in public health, housing, and communities, leading the way to ensure we drive success. This is an exciting time to be joining the team. We are currently undergoing an ambitious transformation programme as we seek to make the very best of our resources. Now more than ever I am looking for a leader who is keen to embrace change and bring enthusiasm and energy to the role, someone who has a passion for driving improvements, who is skilled at developing collaborative partnerships with many different stakeholders, who knows how to work efficiently within a defined budget and who can inspire and encourage their own team to flourish and prosper. This is a visible role which requires excellent relationship building skills - our team is already renowned for working in partnership with others, but there is more to do. Just like everywhere else, there continue to be challenges in York and the need to find ways in which health and social care work together and so looking to the future I am keen to make sure that we work even more closely with our colleagues in the Health services to drive strong integrated care provision and to ensure that adults are supported to live independently for as long as possible. You will find that the role will provide you with the kind of professional challenge and complexity you will naturally aspire to as an ambitious leader - our size as an authority means that we are large enough to provide the rich mix of complexities facing local government, but at the same time we are small enough to enable you to get things done - we are not tied up by bureaucracy and red tape. So, this role will provide you with the opportunity to make a significant difference as well as a platform to enhance your career. If you are interested in joining our team and are inspired to help lead the next phase of our journey, we look forward to your application.
