We are currently looking for an enthusiastic and motivated individual to assist with the management of two small supported living projects supporting 4 adults with learning disabilities. 

This role offers exciting opportunities for personal development, as your duties will also involve the development and setting up new supported living projects for our clients. 

Working alongside the Project Manager and a team of Support Workers, you will provide excellent person centred care to ensure the tenants’ wellbeing, enabling independent and fulfilled living.

You will be responsible for encouraging a culture based on respect and dignity for those in need of care and support, providing supervision and clear management to a team of Support Workers. You will also support the team with the development and implementation of care plans designed to provide meaningful choice and support to tenants.

The right candidate will have experience of leading and coaching a team supporting people with learning disabilities or another client group. Experience of supporting people with high and complex support needs would also be an advantage.

We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic about delivering excellent quality service and managing a varied workload, with a willingness to learn and develop new skills, and the ability to work well as part of a team.
