In a PDF or a paper copy, referring a heading to a page number in the Table of Contents is standard and functional. However, such a reference is now problematic when the whole document exists as a single webpage (I'll not get into the discussion of chunking and breaking up text -- I am relying upon the headings to do that). Because pages are no longer the navigational touchstones for our documents, paragraphs will have to take up this function.
I have been asked to make, bog standard in our templates, a Table of Contents that refers to the paragraph number that follows a heading.

What you're asking for simply isn't possible with Word. If you want something to appear in a Table of Contents, that 'something' must be part of the same paragraph as the entry itself. Style separators can't be used for that, either. If your paragraph numbers are in a different paragraph from the heading, they'll at best appear as a separate entry in the Table of Contents. The obvious solution is to apply a suitable numbering scheme to the headings themselves.
