You will ensure there is accountability for plans across the programme and that roles and responsibilities are clearly defined with all key stakeholders. You will be adept at horizon scanning to pre-empt and mitigate risks associated with the programme, escalating these as required and feeding them into forward planning.

You will have a genuine interest and understanding of the SEND agenda and the education, health, social care sectors, recognising that each has its part to play in the overall transformation of the services we deliver. You will have strong programme management, financial management, performance management and report writing skills, with a focus on the quality of outputs from your team. You will have the natural ability to present yourself positively with both confidence and conviction, inspiring respect and trust amongst colleagues, partners and peers, working as part of the directorate team but with a real outward focus on successful collaborative working. You will be passionate about design-led change that puts citizens at the centre.

If you can demonstrate a proven track record of successful delivery of complex projects of similar scale across partnership structures, dynamic leadership skills, clear strategic thinking and strong influencing and negotiating skills, we would love to hear from you. Your contribution to our transformation journey will build upon on the good progress we've already made in helping to improve outcomes for children, young people and their families.
