Creative Support is a busy and dynamic national charity with a track record in providing high quality, person centred support services in over 65 Local Authorities.
We are seeking a motivated and enthusiastic individual to join our team as a Placement Administrator. The role will require you to have an understanding of the services we deliver and the people we support and ideally experience of working in this sector.
Working as part of the Social Value Team you will be involved in a range of exciting activities that add value to our services and will be based at our friendly Stockport Head Office (with travel as required). This exciting, varied role will include the co-ordination of placements within our services through partnerships with Universities, Colleges and other organisations. You will be proactive in developing links with education providers, our services and teams, as well as forging links with the local communities.
You will need to have a real interest and awareness of the wider social care sector, where a good understanding of health & social care policy/strategy is desirable. Continuous professional development will be provided, but you must be able to work independently, willing to work flexibly, be motivated to the goals and changing needs of the organisation.
You will be based at our friendly Stockport head office with the requirement for travel to services. There will be scope for some home working on successful completion of probationary period. Our offices are readily accessible on public transport as we are based in in the centre of Stockport close to the mainline train station and with frequent buses into Manchester.
We would encourage you to apply to us even if you have not yet had your COVID 19 vaccine. You will be required to have your first COVID 19 vaccine prior to your interview and your second vaccine before you start work with us. This time will be used to complete post interview recruitment checks. Applicants who are unable to receive the vaccination on medical grounds are still welcome to apply with provision of their official NHS COVID pass letter of medical exemption.
Creative Support is a passionate, inclusive, and anti-racist organisation. We are a Stonewall Diversity Champion, Disability Confident Employer who have recently received Investors in People Silver award. We actively encourage applications from candidates from all backgrounds and cultures.
