Every childhood is worth fighting for. This is our belief. It drives us. It's the reason our Children's Services team push themselves to transform the lives of children and families – in person, in service centres nationwide, and through the knowledge they share.
In our Partnerships and Development department we work with others, to create learning and modelling how we can change systems, support the most vulnerable children and families, and build communities that nurture children. With strong multi-disciplinary and partnership arrangements, our teams translate principles derived from research, along with knowledge of those with lived experience, into co-creating new models of effective practice.
We have an exciting permanent role for a Partnerships Service Manager (0.5 FTE) to join our Specialists Partnership management team. The successful candidate will be leading the Lighthouse Letting The Future In (LTFI) team and strategic relationships with multidisciplinary partners to enhance service delivery, build sustainably and contribute to national learning.
