Job description

An exciting opportunity has arisen to appoint a permanent Strategic Housing and Commissioning Officer in the Community Services directorate, as the existing incumbent moves to pastures new.


As the post holder, you will work in a small, dynamic team designing, procuring and commissioning a range of contracts and important services, working across teams and directorates and with outside stakeholders. You will also ensure that all contracts are robustly managed and performing in accordance with contractual obligations, delivering value for money, and ensure that programmes and projects are administratively supported and delivering on their aims and objectives, in accordance with Project Management frameworks.

You will accurately manage the input, output and presentation of data, plan and contribute to the effective contracting and procurement processes used by the team. The ability to work from home will be an advantage, but equally on occasions, you will be expected to travel and work across the county.
