We are looking for an Advanced Team Leader to help us fulfil lives at our complex supported living service Doncaster Road, Ferrybridge, Wakefield (WF11) and in our new complex supported living service in Streethouse, Wakefield (WF7).
At Millennium, we support vulnerable adults that may have a learning disability, autism, other complex needs, and may also display behaviours of distress.

We operate services across the Yorkshire and Warwickshire area that specialise in supporting adults with learning disabilities, Autism and complex trauma on their journeys through life and in the community. From transitioning from hospital to a safe new home, to fostering friendships and building skills, we offer person-centred support, tailored to support individuals no matter their circumstances.
We work in line with the Transforming Care Agenda and will support you to provide Positive Behaviour Support. This means the People We Support are provided with bespoke and person-centred support that will provide them with the foundations to gain further independence.
As an Advanced Team Leader with Millennium, you would lead a team of Advanced Support Workers and ensure a therapeutic environment is provided and maintained that promotes choice, wellbeing and the promotion of an independent lifestyle for the People We Support. This is an extremely rewarding opportunity as you will have a major impact on the lives of the People We Support by supporting them on their journey to further independence. You will also develop the potential of your team members, seeing them achieve their career goals.
Our core values are essential to us working in this way – With Not For, Inclusive, Developing Potential, Responsive, Making a Difference. We live and breathe these in everything we do, whether it is with the People We Support, the People We Employ or people we interact with in our communities.
