Taking a lead on the development of our long-term strategic commissioning plans that enable us to deliver our vision for the people of Leicester.




The Ageing Well lead commissioner post will manage the team who are responsible for our Ageing Well services, support and strategies in Leicester.

This portfolio area leads on the commissioning of key services such as residential and nursing care for older people, and commissioned support services such as our carers support service and dementia support service which help people and their carers to live and age well in our city. The post takes also takes a lead on the commissioning of our discharge to assess services, ensuring we have an effective intermediate care offer for people being discharged from our hospitals.




An important and essential part of the role, therefore, will be your ability to collaborate with key external partners, like our NHS and internal teams such as our occupational therapy and social work colleagues. Critical to the success of the work you do will be your ability to build effective partnerships with our voluntary sector and vibrant homecare and residential and nursing market. Underpinning all this will be your commitment to work in coproduction and codesign with people and carers, recognising people’s strengths and ensuring their voices are at the heart of everything we do.




Leicester is a diverse and vibrant city, as a lead commissioner you will grow our reputation as a council that works hard to bring our communities together working with one purpose – to make our city a great place to live, work and to grow old in. You’ll understand how to develop complex partnerships and be dedicated to multi-disciplinary working. You’ll be an exceptional leader able to manage, direct and develop staff both within and outside the service. As an experienced and adaptable commissioner, you’ll use innovation and creativity to find efficiencies in the way we commission. And, as a member of our team, you’ll have endless opportunities to help shape the future for people, colleagues, and ultimately, your career.




Join us and you’ll find a warm and welcoming place, where you feel you belong. Somewhere that understands your needs and offers the flexibility to meet them. That encourages you to voice your opinions, put forward ideas and gives you the chance to make them happen. That gives you the right support at the right time, so you can develop and progress.




This is a permanent position which is full time, 37 hours per week. With working hours typically daytime, Monday to Friday. With flexibility in hours and location that fit the services’ needs.




At the current time, as part of our commitment to facilitate hybrid working, we are asking our teams in strategic commissioning to be in the office for a minimum of one working day every week.
