In Rochdale we are aspiring to transform services for children, young people and families through an ambitious new model which is central to the children’s programme in The Borough’s Locality Plan. The Family Services Model seeks to redesign services placing co-design and collaboration at the heart of a process which will see a concerted focus on early help in order to support our children and young people as soon as difficulties begin and so prevent crises developing and reduce demand on highly specialist services.
If you want to be part of this ambitious service redesign we are looking to recruit enthusiastic and highly skilled staff who want to lead new ways of working to transform services for children, young people and families.
In order to support new ways of working and thinking we positively welcome candidates from a range of organisations and backgrounds to join our team.
