The role&nbsp;
Reporting to the Executive Director of Adult Social Care (DASS), you will be at the heart of this transformation, working to develop options in the market and commission services that support independence and tailored, outcome-based support.&nbsp;
It is envisaged that the role will change and develop as we look to adopt a more integrated commissioning approach between adult social care, children and young people services, public health, and the Integrated Care Board’s (ICB) requirement for care and support services / prevention.&nbsp;&nbsp;
You will lead a team that manages and develops our local care providers and builds a strong culture of promoting high quality, efficient, innovative and value for money services through effective design, commissioning, and contract management. You will lead that role for Adult Social Care, and where appropriate the ICB, both in the teams you manage and in the local areas with delegated commissioning and contract management responsibilities.&nbsp;
About us&nbsp;
As a modern, flexible and effective organisation, we’re driven to make a positive difference to the environment, the communities we serve and the careers of our people. That’s why, when you join us, you’ll be encouraged to share your fresh thinking and empowered to explore new ideas that will shape and improve our services as well as your career.&nbsp;
In Suffolk adult social care, we have recently agreed a new strategic approach looking to use innovation and technology to support independence, sustainability and high-quality care. We know we want to do more to include people who use of services, the people who support them and our front-line staff in the design of services that will be more personalised and better meet need.&nbsp;
We want to increasingly “think system” and we need people who are able to work across the health and social care system in Suffolk. We are building new approaches to integrated commissioning with the NHS integrated care board and working with our NHS provider organisations to deliver joined up care solutions. Our voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) and independent care sector providers are central to the future model of care required.&nbsp;&nbsp;
About you&nbsp;
This exciting role calls for someone willing to embrace creative and innovative solutions, someone prepared to take risks and a leader who can enable transformation across a wide range of commissioners and most crucially independent care providers.&nbsp;
You will have a clear commitment to co-production and engagement and to enabling highly personalised services for people in Suffolk.&nbsp;
You will also have experience across adult social care, commissioning, and contract management; an in-depth understanding of the health and social care landscape and exceptional relationship-building skills will be required for success.&nbsp;

Even if you don't meet all requirements, still apply. We would appreciate the opportunity to consider your application.&nbsp;
