As part of the Planning, Performance and Risk Team, the role is broadly responsible for the development and continuous improvement of our organisational processes and strategies relating to Business Planning, Performance Management, Risk, Audit and Project Management.
• One successful candidate will work closely with the Statistics and Risk Team to focus on devising a Community Risk Management Plan (CRMP) for the organisation – the project will involve working with external consultants to build a risk-based model for South Wales and undertaking a review of future risks to the communities of South Wales. They will draft the finalised CRMP report and work to ensure that the Service’s ongoing progress against all identified priorities can be monitored.
• The other successful candidate will lead a Service priority which is to introduce a more robust system for identifying, assessing and mitigating risk to the organisation – the Service is looking to implement a Risk Management System and a method of recording and documenting risks and how they are being managed within areas of responsibility. A Risk Management System will enable the Service to clearly identify risk ownership, mitigation, tempo and escalation/de-escalation routes.
You will be proactive and motivated, able to build relationships with internal and external stakeholders at all levels to provide advice and support. You will have experience of strategic planning and project/change management to deliver measurable service improvement, working with the Planning Performance and Risk Manager to identify and implement solutions. You will help to develop our frameworks and systems to ensure we deliver against our statutory priorities and the Service’s plans
