This opportunity would suit an experienced SEN professional with strong leadership skills who is confident managing complex statutory processes and supporting staff within a busy local authority environment. We are currently seeking an experienced and motivated Senior SEN Officer to cover a vacancy within the Special Educational Needs team.

This is a key leadership role that will involve line management responsibility for a designated cluster of SEN Officers and Caseworkers.
