Director of Adults, Health and Wellbeing c. £120k - Doncaster MBC

Salary: c.£120k.

Thriving places are built on wellbeing.

Our purpose is to ensure that Doncaster and its people thrive. And with a renewed focus on innovation, transformation, and an absolute commitment to delivering for the people of Doncaster, there couldn't be a better time to join us in this decisive role. While services are already performing well across the board, with a recent very positive peer review, there's no complacency: our track record demonstrates a consistent hunger for continual improvement, and you'll sustain this quest for excellence.

As the council's leading professional voice on this portfolio, your influence and insights will be sought and valued by colleagues, elected members and service users alike, so you need to bring confidence and experience in equal measure.

We're looking for candidates with the vision and resilience to drive change, motivated to seek input from our partners and always consulting authentically with our community about the future shape of services.

You'll take us to the next level, setting a regional and national benchmark for excellence in the new, more complex world in which we're working.
