“It’s about leading by example – supporting my team so they can give the very best care every single day."
That’s how one of our Team Leaders describes their role. If you’re a confident, compassionate leader who’s ready to inspire others and make a real difference, we’d love to hear from you.
A home, not just a service
Our Chipstead Lake supports adults with learning disabilities and additional needs to live their lives their way. We’re a relaxed, supportive, people-focused service where every day is different – from helping someone achieve a new personal goal to celebrating milestones together.
Your working hours
We are currently recruiting for two full-time Team Leaders, working 36 hours per week, with flexibility to work across weekdays and weekends as part of a rota.
In this role you will work three long shifts per week, 7:30am - 8pm (with 30 mins unpaid break)
From 1 December 2025, enhancement rates of £1.00 per hour will apply to night working (8pm Monday – 7am Friday) and weekend working (8pm Friday – 7am Monday). (This does not apply to sleep-ins.)
Why you’ll love working here
As well as providing support for your wellbeing and development, we offer a fantastic range of benefits:
• Enhanced pay for evenings and weekends
• 28 days holiday per annum inclusive of bank holidays (+1 every year up to 33 days)
• Stream: Access up to 40% of your pay before payday
• Free Blue Light Card: Exclusive discounts and benefits
• Contributory Pension Scheme & competitive life cover
• Health cash plan: Affordable healthcare at your fingertips
• Career development: Opportunities for recognised qualifications and leadership training
• Free DBS check
• Employee Assistance Programme – support when you need it most
What you’ll do
• Lead and inspire a team to deliver outstanding, person-centred care
• Organise rotas and ensure the right staffing levels at all times
• Support with training, development, and supervision of staff
• Work alongside customers to achieve their goals and promote independence
• Maintain accurate records and ensure compliance with policies and regulations
• Liaise with families, healthcare professionals, and external agencies
• Step in to provide hands-on care and administer medication when needed
What helps you shine here
• Experience in a supervisory role within a care setting
• A relevant qualification (NVQ/SVQ Level 3 in Health & Social Care or equivalent)
• Good communication, organisational, and leadership skills
• A warm, supportive, and motivating approach to working with others
• Willingness to work flexibly and take part in the on-call rota
