Mobilisation Lead
Senior Mobilisation Lead – Transforming Supported Living
About the Role
We’re seeking a passionate Mobilisation Lead to drive our ambitious transformation programme at Sense. Working alongside the Head of Mobilisation, Director of Transformation, and operational leaders, you’ll spearhead projects that shift our services from residential care to supported living. Your role will involve collaborating directly with services, commissioners, and families to turn strategic plans into actionable, people-centred change.
This is a hands-on delivery role—expect to work in services, troubleshoot challenges, build relationships, and ensure change is implemented safely, with our people at its heart.
Key Responsibilities
Lead Transformation Delivery
- Lead mobilisation projects focused on transitioning from residential care to supported living.
- Convert strategic decisions into practical delivery plans, defining clear actions, responsibilities, and milestones.
- Work with managers and frontline teams to implement change and embed new working practices.
- Monitor progress, manage risks, and ensure smooth handover into business-as-usual operations.
Keep People at the Heart of Change
- Guarantee every transformation is person-centred, prioritising the needs, aspirations, and rights of the people we support.
- Collaborate with families, advocates, co-production teams, and operational colleagues throughout the transformation.
- Ensure change is delivered with care, transparency, and respect, understanding the significance of homes, relationships, and routines.
Build Strong Partnerships
- Coordinate cross-functional teams (operations, property, finance, HR, digital, communications) to deliver successful change.
- Develop relationships with commissioners, housing providers, local authorities, and partner organisations.
- Facilitate workshops and planning sessions that drive momentum and practical outcomes.
