Sufficiency Support Officer

Do you want your work to make a real difference to the lives of children and young people in our care? This is a brilliant opportunity to join a new team in a new role where your focus will be on ensuring children and young people in our care get the right support, in the right place, at the right time, while securing the best value for money.

This is a temporary role for two years, however there is the possibility of it being extended beyond this point in the future.

What is involved

You will be joining our small Durham Cares Sufficiency Programme Team, a brand new team with a clear purpose.

As a Sufficiency Support Officer, you will help shape how the work of the team develops. This isn’t a role where you step into established processes – it’s a role where you will help design them. You will be part of building something new, working collaboratively to develop ways of working that truly make a difference.
