You will lead the Our Voice Team. You will be passionate about promoting and developing how children and young people can influence service planning and delivery and contribute to local decision-making. The Our Voice Team works to ensure that the views and aspirations of children and young people in Kirklees influence, challenge and drive our service provision and work with young people. Our Voice is a small team in the Resources, Improvement and Partnerships group of services in Children’s Services. The team’s work contributes to service transformation and commissioning by ensuring that children’s voices, experiences and concerns are heard, listened to and help to shape local decisions and services, through direct work with CYP, providers, strategic leaders and stakeholders.
