Support delivery of commissioning activity for SEND working with colleagues in CSC, joint commissioning and placements and QA portfolios.
Contribute to needs analysis, service reviews and evidence gathering to inform commissioning intentions and service redesign.
Support procurement activity, including preparing tender documentation, evaluation materials and contract documentation, in line with procurement regulations.
Carry out day to day contract management tasks such as monitoring performance data, tracking spends, arranging review meetings and maintaining contract records.
Liaise with Placements & Brokerage colleagues to provide commissioning intelligence on demand, availability and cost trends.
Prepare reports, briefing notes and data returns for managers, inspections and partnership meetings.

The successful candidate will bring

Experience or training in commissioning or public service.
Excellent administrative and organisational skills within a supporting capacity to commissioning contracts or service delivery teams.
An overview of commissioning processes, safeguarding principles and public-sector working.
Application of needs assessment, outcomes-based commissioning and performance management approaches.
