Job description

We are looking for an exceptional Senior Project Manager to help drive forward our EPiC Lives (Empowering People, Changing Lives) transformation programme, shaping a future where Adult Social Care empowers people, changes lives, strengthens communities and delivers meaningful, lasting change.

This is a two year fixed term contract linked to specific funding.

This is an inspiring time to join us.

Rochdale’s Adult Social Care is delivering a bold, long term transformation programme that puts 'People at the Heart from the Start', ensuring every change we make creates the conditions for people to live independent, connected and fulfilling lives.

As part of Rochdale Programme Management Office and working directly for ASC Business Change and Transformation Team, you will play a pivotal role in turning our EPiC Lives digital ambitions into reality.

You will help us build a system that is prevention focused, resilient, sustainable and continuously improving, guided by our pillars of:

• Empowering People
• Promoting and Enabling Independence
• Improving access and experience
• Creating a fair, inclusive, sustainable, strength-based care system

Our digital transformation journey is creating a modern, prevention-focused, and accessible adult care system by strengthening pathways, empowering our workforce with the rights tools, ensuring systems optimisation and development of self serve opportunities that will support and enable people to achieve better, more independent outcomes.

We are seeking someone with the passion to inspire others, the creativity to approach challenges differently, and the drive to deliver change that improves lives.

You will bring curiosity, compassion, and purpose driven leadership to help us reimagine how Adult Social Care works today and for the future.

Through your professional curiosity, you will recognise challenges, optimise opportunities, and drive sustainable change with greater efficiency and cost effectiveness, while focusing to deliver improved outcomes for people.

Using a systems thinking approach, you will lead complex programmes of change and transformation that strengthen integration across health and social care, embed prevention and strengths-based practice, and champion innovative, person-centred design.

You will support teams to adopt new ways of working with confidence, ensuring change is not only delivered but truly owned, understood and sustained.

We want someone who thrives in a dynamic environment, can mobilise quickly and sees opportunity where others see challenge.

You’ll turn insight into action, ideas into impact, and ambition into outcomes that make a genuine difference to our workforce, partners and most importantly the people of Rochdale.

Together, we will build a system that is EPiC by design, resilient by nature and transformative in its impact, we want someone who can generate and translate great ideas into operational reality.
