As the Assistant Homes manager you will work alongside the Registered Homes Manager to go above and beyond in ensuring that the children you and your team look after, are nurtured, praised and understood. This results in our children thriving, from their starting points and the children in our care are making exceptional progress.

The ideal candidate for this role will be resilient and have a passion for what you do on a day-to-day basis; able to take accountability and responsibility for the service, always ensuring the best possible service for those living and working within it. You would join a larger management team where peer support and guidance is provided and you will be supported by a service lead to assist with the demands of the role.

We are looking for an Assistant Manager who:

• Has experience of working with children with emotional or behaviour challenges and understands their needs

• Is supportive and passionate about developing people and the home

• Is child-focussed, we put our children first

• Is compassionate, but firm and hugely kind

• Has skills in quality assurance

• Has the energy and motivation to innovate and inspire others

• Has experience of multi-agency working

• Is flexible, creative and can adapt to the needs of the home

• Is an experienced leader

• Is willing to work towards a QCF Level 5 qualification or equivalent

Working hours for the role are predominantly Monday to Friday between 9.00am - 5.00pm. Assistant Homes Managers are also required to work flexibly and provide shift cover including earlies, lates and nights, bank holidays, sleep-ins and weekends.

Our caring staff work alongside Complex Needs Mental Health Link Workers and other health professionals to develop individual, personalised therapeutic care plans that you will help develop and support.
