About The Role

Join our SEND Service and make a real difference!

We're looking for compassionate, knowledgeable, and proactive individuals who can communicate clearly and build trusted relationships. So if you're committed to collaboration, advocacy, and making things happen, we'd love to hear from you!

Our young people want adults who listen, explain things honestly, and keep them at the centre of every decision. Parents and carers value empathy, strong organisational skills, and a deep understanding of SEND legislation and diverse needs. Schools need consistent, accessible professionals who are experts in SEND and can guide them through the system with clarity and confidence.

At Surrey County Council, we're committed to providing excellent support for children and young people with SEND. Our SEND services work together to deliver timely, effective support that leads to positive outcomes. We focus on building strong, respectful relationships with families, schools, and partner organisations, with relational and restorative working practices underpinning all our work.

As an EHCP Coordination Officer, you'll be part of a busy area SEND team, primarily focused on managing the statutory annual review process.

Your key responsibilities as an EHCP Coordination Officer will include:

• Working directly with families, using a person-centred approach to maintain and update Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs)
• Coordinating input from Education, Health, and Care services to ensure each child receives the right support for their needs
• Advising schools and other settings, helping to ensure EHCPs are clear, accurate, and high quality.
  
  

Reflective practice and continuous improvement are key to this role, and you'll be part of a team that puts the child at the centre of everything we do. This is a challenging role but, by working in close collaboration with children's Social Care, Health, parents/carers and families, as well as schools, your impact will help us to achieve the best outcomes for the children we support.

Your Application

In order to be considered for shortlisting, your application will clearly evidence the following skills and align with our behaviours:

• Educated to A-level standard or equivalent, with demonstrable experience and understanding of SEND, including the SEND Code of Practice and the Children and Families Act 2014
• Familiarity with Surrey County Council's Local Offer and the provision across mainstream and special schools, or a willingness to develop this knowledge
• Knowledge of evidence-based interventions and the ability to clearly articulate recommendations in written reports
• Proven ability to write and amend EHCPs, and present relevant information to fully inform decision-making
• Experience of working collaboratively with children, young people, and families to ensure their views are actively heard and applied
• Extensive experience supporting vulnerable children and young people, particularly those with SEND
• Clear and confident communication skills, both in writing and in person, with the ability to build strong working relationships
• Competence in a range of IT tools including MS Office and database management systems
  
  

The role involves working in, and visiting, venues across a locality to build professional working relationships, therefore you will need to have the willingness and ability to travel around the county to meet the demands of the role.

Before submitting your application, we recommend you read the job description and Our Life at Surrey handbook to get an insight into working at Surrey.

The job advert closes at 23:59 on 08/06/2026 with interviews to follow.
