As the Connect Community Team Manager, you will be responsible for the effective and safe delivery of the Service. You will take on management of the service, including line management, quality and performance, team appraisals, and service development. You will be a valued member of the leadership team, attending and contributing to both senior leadership and service governance meetings. You will hold a small clinical caseload and provide oversight on complex clinical cases.
We are committed to investing in your development. You will be supported closely by the operational manager through regular supervision and feedback.

Main duties of the job
You will have relevant experience and clinical skills working with patients who have an eating disorder and their loved ones, excellent communication skills, and the ability to enhance patient pathways with innovation/improvements based on current research and guidance.
You must be passionate about the delivery of high-quality, compassionate care with a forward-thinking approach to proactively lead the team in delivering high standards of care.
We recruit people based on their values and qualifications (where required) and believe that their lived experience is an advantage; this means that together we are as diverse as the communities we care for. Simply put, when we employ caring people who act with integrity and have the right skills, we can give those with mental health challenges, learning disabilities, and neurodiversity high-quality care and support to live fulfilling lives, and make our staff feel purposeful, happy, and valued.
