Summary

Trauma Informed Programme Manager | Bexley | 35 hours per week | £36,500 per annum

Our client is seeking to appoint a Trauma Informed Programme Manager to lead their ambitious plan to make Crossroads Care SEL a trauma informed and trauma responsive organisation.

They are a local charity of 30 + years’ experience delivering practical and emotional community-based respite and support services across the London boroughs of Bexley, Greenwich, and Lewisham to unpaid carers and older people in their own home or in the community.
