Work with the Programmes Manager and Kinship Family Workers to strengthen referral and screening processes where appropriate.
-
Identify recruitment risks early and drive rapid problem-solving.

Essential knowledge and experience includes:
-
Project Management Qualification or commensurate experience.
-
Significant experience managing complex projects or programmes with multiple partners and tight delivery requirements.
