Further Information
We are looking for an enthusiastic, passionate and committed person to join the Early Help Service in Peterborough, as a Multi- Agency Support Group (MASG) Chair.
The successful candidate will be responsible for the chairing of all three locality-based MASG panels in Peterborough. The panels are designed to provide additional targeted Early Help support to some of our most vulnerable children and families in Peterborough through a co-ordinated approach. Each MASG panel, meets, for approximately half a day every two weeks.
The chair will be responsible for providing a multi-agency problem-solving forum at which cases can be discussed. This will enable the greatest resource to be allocated to families with greatest need, supporting the commissioning model of delivery and the notion of Early Help being everyone’s responsibility. The chair will need to provide challenge and support; ensuring rigorous tracking and monitoring of cases; and contributing to the effective functioning of all MASG panels.
In addition to the panels, the successful candidate will be responsible for chairing and overseeing the review of MASG cases at weekly MASG review meetings for each panel.
The successful candidate should have:
• Experience in supporting children and families
• Experience of chairing and leading Multi-Agency Meetings
• Strong and proven leadership skills
You will also be confident at communicating effectively, efficient, organised and be able to work using your own initiative as well as working within a wider team.
In return we can offer you the opportunity to join an experienced, caring, supportive and committed team. And provide you with access to training and development, a generous annual leave entitlement and an agile working environment.
If this sounds like you and you would like the opportunity to play a major role in improving the lives of families in the diverse communities we serve, apply now!
