About us
Avanti Homecare delivers high quality homecare across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire. We're proud of the relationships we build with clients, families and our own people. We're now looking for someone who can become one of the operational leaders of our branch. This is the next step into management from the Care Coordinator role.
Keep the Service Moving
Every successful branch has someone people rely on, when plans change, when carers need support, when families need answers, when the rota suddenly changes. That person helps bring calm, organisation and good judgement. As Senior Care Coordinator you'll play a central role in keeping our service running safely and efficiently.
You’ll work closely with the Registered Manager and Deputy Manager, coordinate day to day operations, support carers, communicate with professionals and help ensure clients receive outstanding care. This isn't simply a rota role. It's an operational coordination leadership role.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the day to day coordination of the branch
- Manage and improve weekly rotas
- Respond to sickness, holidays and operational changes
- Support carers through guidance and communication
- Liaise with families and professionals
- Support client onboarding
- Maintain accurate systems and records
- Complete visit note reviews
- Support brokerage and introductions
- Help identify operational risks
- Cover care calls when required
- Participate in the paid on call rota
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
Who thrives here? People who succeed here enjoy bringing order to complexity, they think ahead, they solve problems, they communicate clearly, they help others succeed, they are calm under pressure and enjoy taking responsibility.
You may already work in homecare or you may coordinate another busy service where multiple priorities, changing plans and operational decision making are everyday responsibilities. Experience from healthcare, community services, housing, logistics or other operational environments may also be relevant.
Essential
- Experience coordinating services, rotas or operational activity
- Experience making day to day operational decisions
- Experience supporting teams
- Strong IT skills

- Good professional judgement
- Full UK driving licence
