Location: The post will be based in Walton Street, Aylesbury.
Contract: This is a 12-month fixed-term contract.
You will work alongside other Social Work Teams, and your extensive knowledge of CHC will be essential to developing and leading the Local Authority team and service to ensure the best outcomes for people using services.
Adult Social Care Team Managers are responsible for the day-to-day operational management of the following key areas:

You will need to have been a Registered Nurse or Social Worker for at least 5 years and be able to demonstrate experience in Continuing Health Care and leading people/teams.
You will bring your in-depth knowledge of legislation and statutory guidance and be familiar with working to a strength-based approach where you think outside of the box and enable people to prevent, reduce, or delay the need for care.
As a leader, you will be able to maintain a proactive culture within a team and work with colleagues and partners to support team development, design and implement new practices, and manage performance requirements.
You will show resilience, persistence, and a supportive and adaptable approach in working in an outcome-focused way with our NHS partners.
