Centre 404 is a well-established charity with an excellent reputation for providing high quality support and services to people with learning disabilities and their families in Islington.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and motivated person to fulfill the role of Service Administrator and Case Worker within our services for adults and young people with learning disabilities. Working alongside a team of support workers, you will provide support with administrative and financial systems for the project, as well as leading on a designated caseload of service users, including planning and coordinating their support and acting as a main point of contact for them and their families.

With the support of the Project Manager, you will contribute to the development and growth of the project, the maintenance of high quality service delivery and the smooth and safe running of the service.

We are looking for a pro-active person with a positive, can-do attitude. The right candidate will have a proven track record of working successfully with people with learning disabilities, or another vulnerable client group, as well as excellent verbal and written communication skills with service users, families and professionals. Experience of developing and maintaining efficient administrative systems is essential, as is an eye for detail and commitment to delivering a consistently high quality of service. You should have excellent numeracy and IT skills, and be comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where priorities can change very quickly.

You will be working in a tight team, where your contribution and ideas will be highly valued and you will have the opportunity to make a real difference to a growing and innovative service. This is an excellent opportunity for the successful applicant to take a step up and build on their experience within a supportive, dynamic and friendly team.
