We are looking for a Team Leader in our Eretz residential home, to join our friendly team within Ravenswood Village. Eretz is a residential service that supports people with neurodevelopmental disabilities to live their best lives.
The purpose of this role is to oversee the delivery of care and support within the home to ensure high quality of service provided.
