Living Well Officer Norwich, England
Job description
Permanent contract | £22,369 to £24,054 per annum (Scale E) | 37 hours per week | County Hall, Norwich
We are looking for a proactive and hardworking Living Well Officer to join the team at County Hall. The role of Living Well Officer is customer focused, with the expectation to deliver a full range of administrative and support services directly to the Connecting Communities team, and the service users they support. This is an exceptionally varied role with involvement in daily tasks such as, sourcing grants or community activities, booking respite, minuting meetings, paying invoices, answering phones, or organising food parcels. In addition, you will be expected to maintain a list of local resources that you can draw upon when considering requests for support from practitioners. You will also make some visits to support the operational team so you will need to be able to drive and have access to a car. The Living Well model seeks to embed our vision to support people to be independent, resilient and well in the community. The role of Living Well Officer is key to the delivery of our objectives so you will be busy and will need to be able to manage competing priorities. You will have a full induction programme, will receive ongoing training and support in the role and there are opportunities for further career development. If you are a committed team player used to delivering first class levels of support, are positive and have a "can do" approach, then we would welcome your application. NCC is working in a hybrid way and therefore there will be some time working from home and some from the office.
For an informal discussion, please contact Stephen Daniels Service Standards and Business Delivery Manager on 01493 448415.
Interviews to be held w/c 28th August 2023.
