About The Role

The Commissioned Services Manager will help the company achieve our goals set out in HC-One’s Purpose in Action, in particular to become the 1st choice care provider for commissioners of care in each community where we have a Care Home in Scotland.

They will partner and build relationships with Scottish Commissioners at all levels, in order to position HC-One as a trusted partner and first choice, to attract and secure top-tier funding and block contracts, and align our care offering with local demand for care.

The Commissioned Services Manager will help and assist operational colleagues with building the right relationships at local level, and help negotiate and re-negotiate contracts, explain our care model and proposition, access care pathways, contribute to service developments and ensure HC-One is represented at all levels from forums with the Director of Social Care to local provider forums and care associations.  They will work with other providers through Scottish Care and Local Associations to further HC-One’s strategic goals.

This is a regional role predominantly covering Scotland.  Living local to the area is desirable not absolutely necessary. Candidates not living locally will be expected to travel and spend time away from home.
