Broker Personalised Packages of Care Work with social workers and care partners to design and commission support packages shaped around individuals their goals, their preferences, their lives.
Build and Develop the Provider Market Identify gaps in local provision, engage new and existing partners, and help grow a diverse, high-quality market that can truly meet the needs of Swindon residents.
Champion Person-Centred Care Act as an advocate for the people we support — ensuring every package is appropriate, proportionate, and delivered by a partner who genuinely meets the brief.
Drive Quality Across the Network Support contract management and quality assurance, contributing to a provider network that is safe, responsive, and continuously improving.

Experience in health, social care, commissioning, or a related field
Excellent communication skills you will work across a wide range of stakeholders

About the Role

Supporting her to access a variety of activities is essential.
Her safety is always the top priority.
At times, this may involve physical intervention to keep her safe, so the ability to work collaboratively as part of a team is crucial, as her behaviours can be unpredictable.

Supporting people to relearn and rebuild daily living skills
Encouraging independence rather than completing tasks for them
Working flexibly within 2-hour visit windows

This is a dynamic role where your professional judgement, confidence and experience will be highly valued.
Key Responsibilities
