Lewisham’s Children’s Centres offer innovative services to children and their families which in turn reduce the need to escalate referrals to more expensive specialist services. There are currently 19 children’s centres in Lewisham to provide families with easy access.

The role

Children and Young Peoples’ Performance Service is currently looking for a Children’s Centre Performance Management Officer who will support the work of the Children’s Centres by administering their database, collating essential performance information, and designing and producing innovative reports.

A candidate who:

• has experience of database maintenance and administration
• designing and delivering training for non-expert database users
• can demonstrate past experience in the collation of performance data and has excellent performance reporting skills
• has technical skills and experience to automate and further develop performance profiles
• wants an opportunity to put to good use past/current data analysis skills

In return, we’ll offer excellent development opportunities, plus a range of benefits that includes a final salary pension scheme, flexible working and the opportunity to make a real difference to our local community.
