Avalon has been delivering innovative services to people with disabilities for 30 years. We pride ourselves on the quality of our care and the expert support we provide to people to maximise their independence and enable them to live the life they choose.

We have a new five-year plan with bold plans for growth of exceptional care services. This new post has been created to support our digital transformation journey and our strategic projects. The Project Manger will be responsible for implementing transformation projects across the charity; in particular the introduction of digital care record management for our Shared Lives Services.

With responsibility for the delivery of other key projects that support our 5-year strategic plan, and mobilisation of new contracts, this is an exciting and varied role working as part of the Senior Management Team.

The base location for this role is flexible, but will include time working across our locality offices as needed. There will also be opportunities to work from home.

With a clear understanding of project management principles and managing change, you will act as the project lead working closely with the project sponsor and other stakeholders. A working knowledge of the adult social care sector and the challenges it faces is essential for this role, and you will have proven experience of project management within the sector.

In return you will have access to our award winning specialist training programmes to further develop your skills and knowledge, and a generous benefits package including discounts at high street retailers, gym memberships and health cash plan, employee assistance scheme, agile working options, and up to 30 days leave entitlement.

Due to the terms of our sponsorship licence, we are currently not able to accept applications from those requiring sponsorship. Please only apply if you are already a resident in the UK with no sponsorship requirements.

Appointment will be subject to an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Certificate.

We’re an equal opportunity employer – that means that anyone with the right skills is encouraged to apply, regardless of age, ethnicity, religion, sexuality or any disabilities.
