Are you passionate about managing and developing services?

 

The core functions of the role are to support the Operational Manager in the successful delivery of services in line with contractual obligations and in accordance with ACT’s Operational Business Plan.

 

Due to the evolving nature of the services that we deliver, there may, in the future, be a requirement for Co-ordinators to adapt and support the delivery of other services within the organisation. At present though, we are seeking a Co-ordinator to oversee our Domestic Abuse services, including Domestic Abuse Outreach Support, Domestic Abuse Accommodation Triage and Domestic Abuse Specialist Support.

 

In doing so, much of your time will be utilised line managing Senior Practitioners, Intensive Support Officers and Volunteers. You will also be expected to support the Operational Manager in monitoring the performance of the service, compiling data to meet reporting requirements, ensuring adequate staffing cover and developing measures which will help towards the efficiency and effectiveness of the service.

 

In achieving the above, the ability to effectively manage, motivate and deploy a team of staff and volunteers is more significant than Domestic Abuse knowledge. The role will involve ensuring that our policies and procedures are implemented, that staff are guided, supported and challenged through supervision and that resources are deployed in an effective manner, inclusive of supporting the Operational Manager to ensure activity is delivered in line with the agreed budget.

 

The collation of success stories and evidencing impact is key to the longevity of our services and you will be expected to play a pivotal role in collating and presenting evidence of good practise and positive outcomes.

 

The role will also involve liaison with external agencies. You will need to be confident in facilitating multi-agency meetings and building effective working relationships with other agencies. In order to maintain our reputation as a trusted provider of services within the Domestic Abuse sector, we will expect you to promote and represent Anglia Care Trust to the highest level.
