Midland Mencap is seeking to appoint a Senior Coordinator to help manage and deliver our Community Wellbeing Service across Birmingham.
Our service is continually evolving as we strive to achieve the best possible life outcomes for the people we support.
To realise these ambitions, we need a Senior Coordinator who is achievement-driven, solution-focused, and confident in working with colleagues, citizens, families, and professionals at every level.
We place great importance on integrity, strong ethical standards, and a commitment to excellence.
This role demands consistent delivery of high-quality outcomes and the ability to foster a positive working culture that empowers citizens with a learning disability to reach their full potential.
We welcome applications from candidates who thrive in a high-performance environment and can bring creativity, leadership, and management expertise to a role where no two days are ever the same.
What Does A Senior Coordinator Do?

You will monitor that all Lead Workers are supporting citizens to find and sustain a tenancy, develop independent living skills, receive the correct benefits, maintain their health/wellbeing, and access employment, training, and volunteering opportunities.
This role requires organisation and good time management. You will support the Service Manager by completing and monitoring reviews, support plans, risk assessments, rota management, staff supervision/appraisal, safeguarding and carrying out regular visits across the service.
The ideal candidate will ensure the service operates in a person-centred way, enabling individuals to exercise choice and control over their own lives, reduce dependency and maximise independence.
This role involves lots of problem solving in order that we make things possible for the citizens we support.
There is a need to be creative, confident, and tactful in how you approach tasks and the wide variety of citizens, families and professionals you will encounter in the course of your duties.
With the support of an experienced management team, you will have the capability to work on your own initiative, be comfortable lone working and ensure that comprehensive digital records are maintained.
