Base will be one of our Calderdale Family Hubs.
We are looking for 2-3 Co-ordinators to work between 25-37 hours.

We are seeking enthusiastic, committed and confident leaders to be Best Start Inclusion Coordinators in our new Best Start Inclusion team. You will be passionate about improving outcomes for babies and young children with emerging or additional needs, supporting families to access the right help early, and promoting inclusive practice across Calderdale’s Best Start for Life and Family Hub network. Working as part of a multi-agency team, you will help ensure children receive the support they need to thrive and reach their full potential.

This is a key leadership role that will oversee and support a team of Best Start Inclusion Practitioners (BSIPs), ensuring high-quality, consistent and impactful delivery of early identification and inclusion support for babies and young children with emerging or additional needs. The role will be instrumental in embedding inclusive practice across Best Start Family Hubs.

You will provide operational leadership, supervision and practice oversight to the BSIP team, supporting staff development, quality assurance, performance monitoring and effective partnership working. As well this, you'll work closely with colleagues across health, SEND, early years, education, social care and the voluntary and community sector to strengthen pathways, remove barriers and improve outcomes for children and families. You will also be working as part of Families Connect integrated front door team for part of your working week.

This is an exciting opportunity to shape a new service, support a skilled workforce and play a leading role in the development of Calderdale’s Best Start Family Hub SEND offer.
