Are you an experienced SEND Officer who thrives on producing high‑quality, legally compliant EHC plans and wants to hit the ground running with a new SEND Service? We are looking for two SEND Officers to manage a caseload of Annual Reviews to support a backlog in a busy Local Authority. 

Your role as SEND Officer:

• Amending and issuing EHC plans following annual reviews, ensuring they are legally compliant, concise and up to date


• Reviewing professional reports and advice, identifying gaps and incorporating updates into high‑quality amendments


• Managing a defined caseload of annual reviews, working to an 8‑week turnaround from review to final plan


• Confidently communicating with families, schools and professionals to discuss amendments and agree changes


• Preparing documentation for panel, finalising drafts and delivering around 10 quality amendments per week

Your previous experience as a SEND Officer:

• Strong, hands‑on experience amending and issuing EHC plans within statutory timescales


• In‑depth understanding of SEND legislation and what good‑quality, defensible plans look like


• Proven ability to manage a high‑volume caseload without compromising on detail or quality


• Excellent written and verbal communication skills when working with families and professionals


• Local Authority experience within SEND or EHCP services

Although the role is remote, you will be expected to collect your equipment at the start of the contract. A short written task will be sent ahead of interview, followed by a 30‑minute discussion focused on your knowledge and experience of EHC plans.

If you’re interested in discussing this opportunity in more detail or know someone who may be a strong fit, please contact David on 0117 313 7110 or apply today.
