Information Officer Livewell B&NES

Fixed Term Contract (for 6 months, can also be offered as a Secondment opportunity)

Are you passionate about the supporting the provision of excellent information to families and parent carers in Bath & North East Somerset?

We are the Live Well B&NES team and we provide, via Live Well B&NES, a wealth of information, signposting and resources for families, children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities (our SEND Local Offer) and adults needing care or support to live independently.

We need an Information Officer to join our small, friendly team; could this be you?

About the role

This is an exciting opportunity for an information officer; someone who can demonstrate flair for ensuring Live Well B&NES provides a range of accessible, accurate and timely information and signposting for the groups of people we need to engage with; families and parent carers of children with additional needs (our team manages the SEND Local Offer for B&NES); an understanding of the needs of these groups would be an advantage.

About you

You’ll need excellent IT skills, confident communication skills, web editing skills, the ability to use your initiative, conduct basic research and collaborate with colleagues, external partners and the third sector.

If you think you are the right person to join us, we’d love to hear from you!

We offer a flexible working environment; with a blend of working at home and at Keynsham Civic Centre.
