Care Co-Ordinator - Role & Responsibility

Community Care Co-ordinators play a central role in the success of Premier Community’s home care services. They are the people who bring together care delivery, people management, and planning, ensuring that our values are reflected in every visit we deliver.

Ensuring Safe, Person-Centred Care Everyday

Purpose of the role

Based primarily at our Head Office in Mansfield, this role sits at the heart of our Community Care operations, working closely with Registered Managers, Team Managers, and care teams to support both service users and staff.

The Community Care Co-Ordinator role exists to ensure that care is safe, consistent, person-centred, and well organised. Co-ordinators balance the needs of the people we support with the well-being of the staff who deliver care every day.

At Premier Community, care co-ordination is about more than scheduling visits. It’s about understanding individuals, responding to change, supporting teams, and making sure people can continue to live independently in their own homes.
