We are looking for candidates with knowledge of person-centred support approaches and that have supported people who are autistic. However, the ideal candidate should be keen to look beyond their knowledge and experience as well. We want creative and forward thinking individuals that have an interest in developing their own understanding and practise of autism support.

We are looking for a person who is hardworking, and with a positive attitude. The ideal candidate will be committed to breaking down barriers to enable people with a variety of support needs to live fulfilling and independent lives. The purpose of the role of Team Manager is to provide leadership and guidance to our teams of Support Workers who provide person-centered support to adults and children with learning disabilities and other support needs.

You will lead and develop your team, and whilst some aspects of team leadership will be delegated to the Assistant Team Managers, you will retain overall responsibility for team management, staff performance and quality of service standards.

Exceptional organizational skills and the ability to juggle conflicting priorities are essential, and your attention to detail will be second to none. You will work closely with the Development Managers to ensure a consistent and high quality service delivery; and lead by example to maintain a positive and empowering ethos within the team.

Knowledge of up-to-date best practise is preferred but not essential as additional training can be provided.
