It’s an important workstream that brings new opportunities to shape what our future looks like, and to design things so that they work better for both our staff and our service users. Getting this work right will play a big part in setting us up for success.
Our Street Scene and Transport Services teams are going to be the first to work with the project team to share ideas and to co-design solutions to improve how we work. Thank you to everyone who’ll be supporting this project – we’ll keep you updated on how it’s going throughout the rest of this year.
Organisational Change
It continues to be a period of significant change across the Council. We’re continuing with the recruitment process for a number of roles in our Senior Leadership Team, which we should be able to provide more detail on shortly.
There are also some big changes in the Legal, Governance and Regulatory Service that I lead. We’re currently recruiting to two new Senior Manager roles, for Regulatory Services and for Life Events (Coroners, Bereavement and Registrars Services). And we’re advertising two more roles for Legal and Emergency Planning and Democracy and Elections alongside a restructure in the Electoral Services Team.
Elsewhere the Communities and Healthy and Sustainable Communities Teams have transferred from Public Health into our Strategy and Communications Service. These changes include functions like Community Safety, the Healthy and Sustainable Communities programme, and Area Working and Cohesion, which will continue to play a key role in helping to deliver our priorities.
Care Quality Commission Assessment
Thanks to everyone who has supported the visit from the CQC this week. The whole assessment of our Adult Social Care services has been a very long process.
So a huge well done to everybody who has been involved in working, especially over the last five months since the assessment was announced, to showcase the care that we provide to everyone who relies on us.
