Summary

Calderdale Council is looking for an Appointee and Deputy Team Leader to lead a specialist team responsible for managing the financial affairs, benefits, property and assets of vulnerable adults who are unable to manage these themselves.

This is a varied and rewarding role where you will combine team leadership, financial oversight, safeguarding, risk management and statutory compliance.
