We offer a range of opportunities to support and promote adults with autism and/or learning disabilities in Cambridgeshire to learn new skills, enjoy lots of different leisure activities, make new friends, gain confidence, and prepare themselves for employment where possible.

• Leads the Aspirations Service in a way that reflects the overarching strategy of the organisation via action plans, effective leadership of staff, sound communications and personal example
• Provides leadership and line management to Aspirations staff, including objective setting, performance management and the appraisal process, delegating the process where necessary and ensuring all Red2Green procedures for this are followed
• Creates and oversees a personalised service for clients that reflects the wider landscape within the county and the sector, with the intention that Red2Green and the Aspirations Service is an industry leader for Autism Services.
• Oversees all Education Provision for those at Red2Green with an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)
• Organises, attends and takes a lead at EHCP reviews, writes EHCP offers and provides professional reports when needed
• Works as Deputy Designated Safeguard Lead (DDSL) alongside the Options Manager, and Chief Executive
• Builds professional relationships with other agencies, provisions and professionals
• Builds good relationships with learners’ families/carers to make sure that they are involved (as appropriate) in developing learners’ skills and abilities
Person specification:
You will have:
• Experience teaching autistic learners and a good understanding of the complexities that come from having more than one diagnosis
• Experience of working with people with learning disabilities
• Experience of leading staff
• Knowledge and Understanding of Education Health Care Plans
• Understanding of safeguarding duty
• Qualification for teaching (adults or QTS)
Benefits:
