You will be an ideal fit if you are great with teams, ensuring that the team stays focussed and the service runs smoothly, making certain that staff working in the service produce comprehensive coordinated care packages with each service user that is implemented and reviewed.  You will empower staff to promote hope, empowerment, choice and opportunities that assist service users reaching their full potential as individuals and community members.

In addition to carrying a caseload, the Senior Navigator will work with the Service Manager by demonstrating day-to-day leadership and performing a range of delegated tasks.
