About the Night Manager Role
At Camden Young Person’s High Support Accommodation Service, nights matter. As Night Manager, you will lead the overnight service, ensuring young people experience safety, consistency and support when they need it most. You will be the senior operational decision‑maker overnight, guiding the night team to respond confidently to incidents, safeguarding concerns, missing young people procedures, building safety and visitor access, and any actions handed over from the day team. You’ll work independently while liaising with the on‑call manager, emergency services or wider management team to keep young people, staff and the building safe.
In addition, this role focuses on connection: you’ll line‑manage, support and guide Night Workers, oversee locum or agency staff, and ensure overnight learning, handovers and emerging themes are shared clearly with the Service Manager and wider team. Through trauma‑informed, strengths‑based and psychologically informed practice, you’ll help build a service where night and day support feels joined up, purposeful and ambitious for young people’s futures.
About You

* You have experience supporting, supervising or leading staff in supported accommodation, youth work, social care, housing or a similar setting.
* You understand the needs, strengths and risks of young people in high support accommodation, including safeguarding, trauma, distress and non‑engagement.
