At Turning Point, we support people across England with learning disabilities. Making a real difference to their lives, you’ll motivate, manage and grow a team of support staff to enable more people to discover new possibilities in their lives.
We have an opportunity as a Supported Living Manager at our services in Barnsley and Sheffield. The Supported Living Manager will be responsible for managing 5 properties within Barnsley and 1 property in Sheffield.
Role Responsibility
As the manager, your focus will always be on ensuring the delivery of consistently high-quality services. You and your team will develop and maintain flexible and realistic support plans using our excellent digital care management system in collaboration with the people we support, family members and other professionals. You will be responsible for everyday operational management.
The role is not a registered manager's position at present; however, you should expect it to develop into that, so knowledge and experience of the regulations and requirements of the Care Quality Commission is essential. Therefore, you will hold a Level 5 qualification or be willing to work towards it. Managing a team through a time of change, management experience, and a background of working in a supported living setting will be a real advantage. The ability to meet financial and business targets will be just as important, as will a track record of supporting and empowering people to live more independently in their community. Flexibility is essential, and you should also have a full driving license and access to a car.
The Ideal Candidate
* Previous Management experience within the Learning Disability sector, preferably also working with individuals who have complex health and mental health issues.
* Sound knowledge of CQC and experience of managing services governed by these regulations.
* Experience in managing change/transformation within services.
* Experience of improving services.
* Management experience of multiple properties.
* Sound understanding of supported living services.
* Experience of being accountable for budgets and how to ensure they remain within required parameters.
* Knowledge and experience of managing staff teams, developing talent, and managing performance issues.
* Personal qualities to be able to motivate staff members, develop leadership, and delegate skills.
* Positive communication skills, both verbal and written.
* Ability and experience of working alongside Commissioners, Stakeholders, Regulators, and other parties who are involved with a service.
* You will be required to be part of an on-call rota.
