Technology Enabled Care Officer

Job Description

Salary: £32,578 - £34,811 per annum 

Hours per week: 37 hours

Temporary/Fixed term: 14 months

Interview date: To be confirmed upon shortlisting

We’re looking for a passionate and proactive individual to join our NEW Technology Enabled Care (TEC) team.  

This is a rewarding opportunity to help people live more independently by using innovative digital solutions like sensors, pendants, and smart hubs. 

As a TEC Officer, you’ll work directly with customers and their families to understand their needs and design personalised support plans. You’ll assess and review care needs, provide TEC equipment, and guide people in using it confidently. You’ll also work closely with health professionals, voluntary organisations, and other partners to ensure the best outcomes for those you support. 

You’ll need experience in a health or social care setting, strong communication skills, and the ability to manage your own caseload. A Level 4 qualification in Health and Social Care is ideal, but if you’re committed to working towards it, we’d still love to hear from you. 

This role involves travel, so you’ll need to be comfortable visiting people in their homes or other settings. You’ll also need to be confident using digital systems and understand the importance of safeguarding and data protection. 

If you’re someone who enjoys problem-solving, values independence, and wants to make a real difference in people’s lives, we’d love to hear from you.

Submission of unsolicited CVs or candidate details to the Council, whether directly or to individual employees, will not be considered as an introduction and will not create any obligation on the Council to pay any fees.

Agencies wishing to work with the Council must do so only via our approved procurement processes and neutral vendor arrangements.
