Hassan Olagunju

I am an experienced Health and Social Care Consultant with a strong background in adult social care, supported housing, and service improvement within local authority and provider settings. I bring extensive hands-on experience in care coordination, brokerage, safeguarding, and multi-agency working, with a clear focus on delivering person-centred, outcome-driven support.

Currently working within a London local authority, I support complex care and support pathways involving health, housing, mental health, and community services. I am skilled at translating frontline operational challenges into practical solutions that improve service quality, system efficiency, and value for money. My experience spans care planning, commissioning support, quality assurance, and digital systems such as CareCubed, Mosaic, and Rio.

I hold postgraduate qualifications in Data Science and Finance and Economics, alongside professional qualifications in Health and Social Care. This enables me to combine practice expertise with data-led insight, financial awareness, and strategic thinking. I am particularly passionate about supporting organisations to improve service delivery, strengthen customer engagement, and meet statutory responsibilities while maintaining dignity, independence, and wellbeing for those they support.

I am an experienced health and social care professional with over nine years’ experience across adult social care, supported housing, digital systems, finance, and service improvement. I currently work within a London local authority as a Specialist Care and Support Brokerage Officer, coordinating complex care and support arrangements involving health, housing, safeguarding, and multi-agency partners. I have extensive experience using digital case management and brokerage systems, supporting hospital discharge, prevention, and community-based pathways.

Previously, I held senior operational and financial roles within a large care provider, managing service delivery, compliance, safeguarding, budgets, and system adoption. I also bring experience from a FinTech environment, where I supported operational delivery, business development, and data-led service improvement. My background combines frontline practice, operational leadership, financial oversight, and analytical expertise, enabling me to deliver person-centred, efficient, and outcome-focused services.

I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Data Science and an MSc in Finance and Economics from the University of Sussex, providing strong analytical, financial, and data-driven decision-making skills. I also completed a Mini MSc in Development Economics and a BSc in Economics, equipping me with a solid understanding of public services, social policy, and economic evaluation. Alongside my academic qualifications, I have completed multiple leadership and management training programmes, supporting effective service delivery within health, social care, and housing environments.
