How you'll make a difference
Do you want to create, grow, and lead a network of children’s homes where children feel at home, supported, and encouraged to grow and flourish every day?
Phoenix Learning and Care is expanding, and we’re opening new children’s homes in South Gloucestershire to support children with social and emotional needs related to Autism, ADHD, and Trauma. To make this happen, we need experienced Residential Leaders who will be at the forefront of our mission. You’ll play a vital role in the growth of our homes and help us recruit the right team members who will provide the best possible care and support for the children of South Gloucestershire every day.
At Phoenix Learning & Care, we ensure that the children we support experience as many positive opportunities as possible—just like other children. But we can’t do this without the support of our Area Managers.
As the Area Manager for South Gloucestershire, you’ll have overall management responsibility for several three-bedroom children’s homes. Each home within your area will be led by a Registered Manager and a team of Support Workers, all dedicated to the well-being of the children. Your leadership will play a key part in developing these teams, enhancing the support provided to the children, and ensuring the success of each home.
You’ll be part of a team of Area Managers who work together in ensuring all the children's homes are effectively supported. You’ll also be required to provide an on-call service out of working hours on a rota basis.
