Full Job Description

The Adult Social Care vision in Hull is of 'a life not a service'. Adult Social Care is person centred and focuses on individuals' strengths to support them to take control of improving their own health, resilience and wellbeing. We want to maximise people's independence so individuals can achieve their goals and aspirations and live life to the fullest. We work creatively with individuals, local communities and our partners, empowering them to deliver the best possible outcomes for people and to create a positive Adult Social Care culture. Our work is solution focussed, ensuring that those who most need support receive it and that we can continue supporting people in the future.
You will work with people who are known to adult social care, and who have been referred into the out of hours service. This may be when a change in circumstances has resulted in risks to a person's independence or safety. You will support people through such a short-term period of crisis to enable them to remain living independently or to minimise risks. You will work collaboratively with the Hospital, Active Recovery, other multi-disciplinary Out of Hours Teams, Locality Teams and Safeguarding Teams to provide flexible and responsive support to people to live safe and independent lives.
You will join an established and experienced team to support the delivery of ASC services out of hours. You will be expected to practice in an autonomous manner seeking guidance and supervision accordingly to ensure core values that underpin the Council's conduct at work are demonstrated and positive practice is promoted.
There is currently one 32hr fixed term (FT) position available, and we are also looking to recruit successful applicants to casual posts.
Please note that the position is fixed term (FT) for 18 months after start date due to a pending service review.
The post holder will hold NVQ level 3 in care or equivalent and have experience of supervision of staff including conduct, competency and sickness, in addition to having excellent working knowledge around implementation of performance management including production of reports, data, monitoring and action.
