Job Overview
We are looking for a Deputy Manager to join our Brand New Supported Living Scheme opening in July 2026! This will be a Supported Living Service with 9 bungalows on 1 scheme. You will be working alongside a dedicated registered manager and PBS practitioner to support individuals to live independently in their own homes.
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for experienced care professionals who are:
* Driving desirable, but not essential
* Kind, patient, and genuinely passionate about helping others
* Skilled in supporting individuals with complex needs, including autism, learning disabilities, and mental health conditions
* Experience in dealing with EDUP, and behaviours that challenge
* Reliable and ready to show up with purpose every day
* Great communicators who enjoy working as part of a team
* Confident in delivering person‑centred care and promoting independence

A Day in the Life
As a Deputy Manager, you will support the Cluster Team Manager and oversee a team of Support Workers to ensure the smooth, day to day running of the service. You will help with rotas, admin, medication and more. No two days are the same — and every day makes a difference. You might start your morning helping someone plan their day, attend a medical appointment, or engage in therapeutic activities. In the afternoon, you could be supporting with life skills like cooking or budgeting, joining in with hobbies, or simply enjoying a walk and a chat. You’ll build real relationships, celebrate progress, and be a trusted presence in someone’s life. You’ll work closely with a supportive team, communicate openly, and make decisions that truly matter.
