Head of Service - Practice Improvement

Outside IR35 | £500 Per Day | Subsidised Accommodation | 12-Month Stable Contract | Channel Islands

Strong leadership is vital for a local authority on an improvement journey – we are therefore looking for a Head of Service for Improvement to join one of the channel islands on an agency contract to continue their focus on development of practice within the service.

The post comes off the back of a successful recruitment drive on the middle tier of management; much of whom are now permanent, giving you the ideal foundation to start making your mark and further making the lives of the children and families of the island better. You will be heading the Safeguarding service..

Due to the ambitions of the service, you will ideally have a strong background in leadership, and even more desirably a history of service improvement and development.

As well as a brilliant opportunity for a seasoned Head of Service to make some positive change, the island also presents itself as an ideal adventure for someone looking for something a bit different - miles of countryside and coast, steeped in history, and a slower pace of life than the hustle and bustle of the mainland. (not to mention the friendly locals!)

As this is a statutory role, you do require a social work qualification & registration to Social Work England.

If you want more details either about life on the island, or the job at hand please reach out to Chris on 07897 024978, or email Chris@Leadersincare.co.uk to arrange a call (as I’m sure you’re extremely busy!)
