Job description

This is an exciting opportunity to play a key coordinating role within Carers Support West Sussex, supporting services that focus on specific caring roles, being mental health, dementia, learning disability, neurodiversity, and drug and alcohol.

Working closely with senior managers, you will bring leadership, structure and oversight to a varied and fast-paced role—coordinating multiple workstreams, supporting a team of Specialist Leads, and ensuring services are consistently high quality, well organised and responsive to what carers need.

A key part of the role is overseeing the delivery of grant-funded projects, ensuring they are effectively planned, coordinated and delivered to a high standard.

You will thrive in this role if you are an experienced manager who enjoys keeping things organised, managing competing priorities and helping others to deliver high-quality work. Your ability to communicate clearly and work collaboratively will ensure that insight from carers and partners translates into meaningful, accessible support.

This is an exciting hybrid role with a mix of working from home and attendance at countywide events and partnerships, offering the opportunity to be part of a supportive, purpose-driven organisation committed to improving outcomes for unpaid carers.

Key Responsibilities

  • Coordinate and support a team of Specialist Leads to deliver high-quality carer services
  • Oversee delivery across key areas (mental health, dementia, learning disability & neurodiversity, drug & alcohol)
  • Lead coordination of grant-funded activities, ensuring delivery is on track and well organised
  • Work with partner organisations (e.g. health, social care and VCSE) to progress joint activity and ensure actions are followed through.
  • Support reporting and monitoring to demonstrate impact

About You

  • Experienced manager, confident leading and supporting others
  • Highly organised, able to manage multiple priorities and workstreams
  • Strong communicator with a collaborative approach
  • Proactive and solution-focused
  • Committed to improving outcomes for unpaid carers
