About the team

Our Adult Social Care Performance Team plays a vital role in embedding data-driven decision making across services, supporting improved outcomes for adults and carers across Hertfordshire.

About the role

You will join a high-performing, fast-paced Performance Team, delivering statutory and operational performance and intelligence across Adult Care Services. Working flexibly across the county and remotely, you will collaborate closely with internal services, regional and national networks, and partners in health and the voluntary sector.

You will lead on intelligence reporting for specific service areas, transforming and presenting complex datasets into clear, accessible insight for a range of stakeholders by using a variety of Microsoft tools.

You will use your ability to present your analysis to deliver performance reporting to service leads to support senior decision-making.

A key aspect of the role is the use of Power BI to develop, deliver and maintain dashboards by using existing measures and visualisations. Working closely with stakeholders, you will co-produce dashboards using user stories managed as part of an Agile approach to ensure the products are user focused and aligned to agreed standards. By integrating feedback from end users and addressing issues highlighted during testing, you will facilitate a controlled rollout of dashboards for broader organisational deployment. This includes presenting dashboards across various services to ensure stakeholders comprehend the data and insights provided within them.
