Are you an experienced Social Care Manager or Service Leader?
Do you excel at managing teams to deliver exceptional person-centred support in their own homes?
Then maybe a Service Leader role with a growing and award winning charity is the change you've been looking for!
We are currently recruiting for a Service Leader Level 2 to manage a cluster of supported living services in the Glasgow area. You will be responsible for leading a team of Support Workers across the services to deliver individualised support to 8-12 individuals with learning disabilities, autism and mental health concerns, so previous experience in the social care sector is vital.
You will ensure the service is complaint in all areas required by the care inspectorate and encourage all colleagues within the services to play an active part in achieving this.
As you will be responsible for managing several services in a cluster, the successful candidate should hold a UK driving license and have access to their own car.
With experience working in a health or social care setting, you will have an upbeat positive manner, as well as having a genuine passion for supporting people to become a part of their local and wider community.
You will also have experience working with people supported who present behaviours that require intensive support planning and management to ensure their safety and quality of life at all times.
This is a full-time role (37.5 hours per week) and the hours will generally be Monday-Friday 9am - 5pm. Community Integrated Care operates a centralised on-call facility for out of hours support. Therefore, there is no requirement for on call duties as part of this role.
This is a great opportunity to make a genuine difference, where you will be responsible for leading an engaged and motivated team to change lives and deliver person-centred outcomes for every person we support. You will also take the lead by driving performance, setting the pace and direction within services, promoting a positive and passionate culture, and ensuring that services are appropriately and effectively resourced to change lives for the better.
In addition you will be comfortable using basic IT systems that are required within the role - training can be offered to support this area.
An SVQ Level 4 in Health and Social Care or equivalent, or willingness to work towards this, is also essential.
