Supported Living Manager, Walsall, near Birmingham. Learning Disabilities, Autism, Mental Health. (NOT a CQC registered manager position)
My client is a reputable, award winning care provider looking for an experienced manager to oversee their Supported Living service for adults with learning disabilities.
This is a fairly large, very modern apartment complex with excellent facilities for the residents. Whilst every apartment has very high-spec individual facilities, the scheme was also designed to incorporate a number of communal areas (both inside and outside the building) which means that everyone benefits from enjoying group activities and communal events.
You will have experience of managing quality, compliance and be passionate about providing genuinely person-centred care, and be able to inspire your team members to have that same ethos.
The main focus is on ensuring that care quality is absolutely at the forefront of how the service is managed, and ensuring that the clients have the best possible opportunities to live as independently as possible. It will suit a leader who enjoys building teams, mentoring individuals and inspiring staff by creating a culture where ideas are encouraged, effort is recognised and team members have opportunities for personal development and progression.
In turn, you will be supported by a passionate and approachable senior management team. They also have excellent support functions within the organisation, regional support teams, specialist PBS / positive behaviour support functions and excellent levels of financial investment, to ensure services can be the very best they can be. You will also be given a bonus scheme based on care quality, as well as a good salary package.
Whilst you will be given the chance to work autonomously, take ownership, make decisions and make the role your own, this position does NOT require you to take on the CQC registration. However, this is a progressive organisation with plenty of internal opportunities, and should you be looking to move into a Registered Manager or Area Manager/Regional Manager in the future, these are the sorts of positions available
