You’ll be part of a small group who scrutinise and oversee our work on behalf of Cottsway customers, helping to ensure we are open and accountable. You’ll work closely with other Cottsway customers, our staff and Board to review services and performance to help identify areas for improvement.

You’ll need a positive attitude, energy, enthusiasm and be able to commit to an average of five hours per month. You’ll take part in meetings:

• Every two weeks, with more as needed - online and in person, with a laptop provided to support you.
• Times are flexible and are decided upon by the group.

You’ll work as part of a team involved in a range of tasks, including research. Training and support will be provided to help you, including with working online if needed.

For more information, see our: Scrutiny Group role profile

This is a great opportunity to sharpen up existing skills and learn some new ones, make new friends and help Cottsway improve services. You'll receive:

• Access to training to help build your skills, knowledge and confidence;
• A laptop for use while you are member of the Group; and
• Reasonable carers’ costs and travel expenses where applicable.

You’ll need to complete an application form and there’ll be an interview with the Group chair and a member of Cottsway’s staff.
