The interim post is required to be accountable for the strategic management and leadership of the Council's commissioning arrangements, focused primarily on Adult Social Care. Furthermore, it is required to devise and deliver the Council's approach to commissioning, working with relevant partners and to develop and lead collaborative working partnerships with a range of external partners, delivering across organisational and local authority boundaries to secure City Plan outcomes and impact for every community. Please note that whilst the job description references integrated commissioning, at this stage the post is focused primarily on Adult Social Care as the services are not yet integrated.
