About The Role
We're looking for an organised and proactive Care Co-ordinator to join our Care & Support team and help ensure residents and people who use our services receive high-quality, reliable care and support.
In this role, you'll provide administrative and co-ordination support across our Homecare and Extra Care services. Working closely with managers and frontline colleagues, you'll be responsible for creating and managing staff rotas, helping to ensure care and support is delivered at the right time and in line with residents needs.
You'll also play an important role in supporting the day-to-day running of the service, responding to enquiries, maintaining accurate records, arranging meetings, supporting compliance activity and helping to deliver an efficient and customer-focused service.
Your main place of work will be Newport, although you'll be required to work from other locations at times and attend training or meetings when required. You'll therefore need a full driving licence and access to a vehicle with business use insurance. Occasional work outside normal office hours may also be required.
We're looking for someone who is organised, customer-focused and detail-oriented, and enjoys coordinating services, supporting colleagues and helping to deliver excellent care services.
