Job Description

Our Social Care Community Engagement (SCCE) Team is at the forefront of implementing the "Human Learning Systems approach" - Norfolk's approach to delivering a new model of social care. This tried and tested method focuses on strengthening our front door and encouraging social care professionals to have meaningful conversations with individuals to create better outcomes. It moves away from process-driven 'hand-offs' and promotes connecting with local networks and community support. By fostering these genuine interactions, we aim to enhance the quality of care and support available in our neighbourhoods and communities.

In this role, you will need excellent communication, record-keeping, and keyboard skills, along with experience of working with individuals who require care and support. A commitment to excellent customer service and the ability to manage a high turnover of work in an organised and efficient manner are essential.

You should also have a strong commitment to multidisciplinary working and be familiar with the department’s eligibility criteria. To accomplish our goals, we are committed to equipping our team members with the skills and resources necessary to engage meaningfully with those we serve. Regular individual supervision, peer group support, and access to appropriate training will be provided to assist your learning and development.

Our approach prioritises personalised care that recognises the unique circumstances and needs of each individual. By fostering strong relationships and empowering individuals, we aim to create a collaborative environment where everyone can thrive. To build meaningful relationships with the people we support, this role requires regular in-person work in both the office and community.

SCCE current works in a hybrid manner (office and remote working). Note that this is open for review as we expect flexibility and adaptably to the demands of the service.

Adult Social Services in Norfolk is on an ambitious, exciting transformation journey. We're redesigning how we work to create a system that is flexible, human, and focused on better outcomes. As part of this journey, you'll contribute to an environment where learning is continuous, insight is shared, and innovation is encouraged. We support flexible and hybrid working, with a minimum expectation of two days per week spent in a community or office setting, helping you stay connected with colleagues, communities and the people we support.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
