About the Role

We are looking for a Female Team Leader to coach and supervise a highly skilled and experienced team, who are in need of fresh, visible leadership.

The team support a complex and fun-loving young woman who lives in her family home with 2-1 care. She is autistic, has ADHD and an intellectual disability. She exhibits anxiety and behaviours of distress. Compassion and empathy are the cornerstones of our approach.
