Sense are looking for a Practice Development Advisor within our practice development team, located in the South East. This will be a hybrid role that includes travelling across various Sense sites throughout the region including Greater London, Central London and Kent.
What is a Practice Development Advisor?
Our Practice Development Advisors are part of the Sense Quality Team and work closely with our Operational service managers and support staff to promote and develop best practice across Sense services. Key responsibilities include facilitating staff training and advising on person centred approaches, positive behaviour support, communication, sensory needs, interaction, and environments in order to develop our workforce and ensure that people Sense support can live a good quality of life.
This role would suit education, health or social care professionals who are interested in sharing and developing their knowledge of best practice, positive behaviour support and communication strategies for people with deafblindness and/or complex needs. Coaching and mentoring from an experienced member of the team will be provided, alongside train-the-trainer opportunities, so that you have the skills, knowledge and ability to support Sense.
