Job Description
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced and driven individual to join the Greater Manchester Integrated Offender Management (IOM) Team as Operational Lead on a 12-month temporary basis.
This is a unique opportunity to lead within one of the highest-performing IOM programmes nationally, working at the centre of a highly effective partnership between Probation, Greater Manchester Police, prisons, local authorities, health providers and commissioned services. The role is focused on driving reducing reoffending, protecting communities and supporting individuals to achieve sustainable behavioural change through robust risk management, targeted interventions and innovative approaches to offender management.
As an IOM Manager, you will provide operational leadership and oversight for local IOM delivery, ensuring the effective implementation of national and Greater Manchester priorities. You will lead and develop staff, oversee multi-agency case management processes, drive performance and quality, and work collaboratively with partners to achieve positive outcomes for some of the most complex and challenging individuals within our communities.
The role also offers a significant opportunity to influence and support the wider Greater Manchester reform agenda. Working closely with colleagues across the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) and other devolved programmes, the postholder will help ensure that IOM remains aligned to broader public service reform priorities, including rehabilitation, community safety, health, employment, housing and reducing inequalities. This includes building effective links with commissioned services and place-based partnerships to maximise opportunities for individuals managed through IOM and support long-term desistance from offending. The role will therefore suit a leader who is comfortable operating across organisational boundaries and can translate strategic priorities into operational delivery.
You will be expected to represent IOM within local, regional and national partnership forums, champion innovation and continuous improvement, and contribute to the ongoing development of Greater Manchester’s integrated approach to offender management. With significant changes across both criminal justice and devolved public services, this is an exciting time to join a programme that is at the forefront of partnership working and system leadership.
This opportunity would suit an individual who is passionate about partnership working, public protection and rehabilitation, has experience and is confident in implementing change at a fast pace and who is keen to contribute to the continued development of Integrated Offender Management across Greater Manchester.
