Performance specialist

Job Introduction

Do you want to use your business acumen, performance analysis and improvement skills for good? Turning Point is a large Social Enterprise supporting around 100,000 marginalised and disadvantaged people across the country each year.

We need a passionate and experienced person to take on the role of Information & Performance Lead supporting our Suffolk Integrated Substance Misuse Treatment Services, and beyond as part of our Insight team.

The post has a local / national remit with a hybrid working pattern incorporating a least two days per week at one of our Suffolk Hubs : Bury St Edmunds, Ipswich or Lowestoft.

There may also be additional travel between Hubs or to one of our 2 Head Quarters (London and Manchester). We will manage travel to enable a work-life balance.

Interviews to be held on Monday 5th June 2024 via Teams.

Role Responsibility

You will need to respond to regular and ad-hoc reporting requirements which cover varied audiences from team level to senior management team and up to commissioner level.

You will help find ways to showcase performance and celebrate the great work our services and staff deliver, looking beyond commissioner and contract KPIs and into best practice.

You’ll be able to demonstrate you can get the best out of teams, using your aptitude for leadership, influencing others to be the best they can be.

You will be a self-starter with the ability to quickly research and understand the social value of the work we do, alongside that of our local, regional and sector competitors.

You will make recommendations and suggestions on where our services and organisation should go. You will help provide information to improve the operational effectiveness and, consequently improve the quality of lives for the people we support.

The Ideal Candidate

You will be experienced in the preparation and command of large volume data, able to navigate databases and Excel with ease, in order to compile engaging data which can drive performance, tell the story, and really add value for the service, its staff, and its service users.

You will need to know how to convert a complex problem in to a manageable (bite-sized) solution. This includes collaboration with others in and out of the organisation to agree the logical / best approach.

You do not need to have experience working in health and social care or with substance misuse and public health data sets, although knowledge in these areas would be advantageous.
