A large care group has a fantastic opportunity for a Deputy Home Manager based in Hayes, London to join an expanding company. There is one full time role available, to support 2 young gentlemen with learning disabilities who require support with all aspects of personal care, offering a competitive salary plus other benefits. Driving licence holders are essential.
We believe that the successful Deputy Manager should have experience working with adults with learning disabilities, and always has the right values and attitudes.
As a company we believe that people with learning disabilities should have as much control as possible over their own lives. The more decisions they can make for themselves, the more independent they are. The more independent they are, the more satisfying their lives will be.
We would like you to help us drive up quality in supporting people with a learning disability in all aspects of their daily lives - in their homes and in their communities.
As a Deputy Home Manager you will:

• Support the Home Manager in managing the recruitment of high quality staff and the induction, support, supervision, development, performance management and training of the residential care staff with support from with the HR Department
• Promote continuing staff awareness of, and compliance with care packages, Company policies, procedures and guidelines, relevant legislation, and regulatory requirements.
• Monitor budgets, including petty cash, the effective use of staffing, and service user’s finances with adequate safeguards in place
• Demonstrate vigilance to the health and safety of service users, visitors, colleagues and others
• Ensure that medication is ordered and administered in line with Policies and Procedures.
• Assist the Home Manager to ensure that the building is well-maintained and provides a safe and stimulating environment for service users.
Due to the nature of the role all candidates require an enhanced DBS check, the cost of which will be met by the employer.
The ideal Deputy Home Manager will hold the following skills and experiences:
• Residential experience working with people with learning disabilities or mental health needs
• Social Care NVQ Level 3 or equivalent qualification. Working towards or achieved Social Care NVQ Level 4 or equivalent qualification
• Able to adapt your communication to a range of different situations, and be ready for anything, as at times you may face dealing with behaviours that may challenge.
• Knowledge of the CQC inspection process, requirements and procedures.
• The ability to work shifts in a flexible manner revolving around the service user needs, which may include evening, weekend and sleep-in work.
• Able to inspire and motivate others
• Motivated, dynamic, thoughtful, positive and caring people to join our forward thinking company.
