AKTON Recruitment is working closely with the local authorities and we are looking for a Commissioning Officer to join the Mental Health & Prevention team.

Your experience will include the full range of commissioning activities, ideally for adults with care and support needs that include mental health and ideally hospital discharge.

You will have experience in leading projects, organising events and meetings. Strong communication skills, written and verbal, are essential for the post. There are big financial challenges facing Adult Social Care and Health Services over the coming five years, further amplified by the impact of Covid19. We know we need the best people in place. People keen to make a meaningful contribution to our most vulnerable residents.

People with a flexible attitude, who enjoy a fast paced working environment. If you are resourceful, resilient and results driven, then we want you as part of our Commissioning Team. We are looking for individuals who want to deliver the best service for people with a variety of needs, who need support to live independent lives; someone who has the tenacity to make sure that those who require support, get the best service on the right contractual terms for our Council.
