Location: Working from home
SCIE Vision
We are committed to building a society which enables people who draw on social care to live fulfilling lives.
At the SCIE, we are driven by our values:
· Progressive – always learning and developing.
· Inclusive – working together for equality, diversity, and fairness.
· Credible – evidence-based, robust, and reliable.
· Transparent – open and honest.
· Committed - focused on making a difference to people’s lives.
The role:
We’re looking for a senior leader to make co-production the way we work — not a project, not a principle, but embedded practice across the organisation.
This is a high-impact role shaping how lived experience drives strategy, design, delivery, and decision-making. You’ll lead a specialist team, but your influence will stretch internally and externally.
You’ll be responsible for turning ambition into action — building a clear roadmap, strengthening capability, and ensuring co-production is consistent, credible, and genuinely embedded into our work.
You’ll lead the development and delivery of new co-production products and partnerships, generating income and strengthening our position as a sector leader in co-production practice.
What we are looking for:
Example as below
• Embedding co-production across the organisation so it becomes business-as-usual.
• Developing and delivering co-production products internally and externally and generating new income streams.
• Leading a bold roadmap for culture change and continuous improvement
• Influencing partners across social care and beyond.
• Strengthening governance, accountability, and consistency of practice
If you can help shift co-production from aspiration to reality — we want to hear from you.
What we offer in return:
We offer excellent staff benefits including a competitive salary and homeworking allowance. We provide an employer pension contribution above the statutory minimum, an award-winning employee assistance programme, and an attractive holiday package which rises with length of service. Benefits of working for SCIE can be found here Work for the Social Care Institute for Excellence - SCIE
