Job description

Helping people find jobs in the local area since 2008

Hours Full Time- 37.5 hours per week including weekends, evenings and bank holidays

We invite you to join our team of passionate people working at Sudley Road and Queens Square. Our team supports people with a lived experience of learning disabilities and autism to live the lives of their choosing. Our team are founding members of the Gr8 Support Movement (www.paradigm.co.uk ) and we are passionate about our work. We are looking for someone to work alongside us, to inspire us and support us to be the best we possibly can.

Within Aldingbourne we have been working towards our teams becoming self-organising. A key element to this role will be to work with the team to support them in developing a team culture that thrives on accountability, continuous improvement, and taking ownership of tasks.

The service is based across two sites within walking distance of each other. The main site includes ten self-contained flats, along with an office. A second site, located nearby, consists of six self-contained flats.

You will lead and support a busy staff team to provide high-quality, consistent, and person- lead support. This includes creating a positive team culture, making sure people receive the right support at the right time, and ensuring the service is safe, well-run and focuses on helping people live full and meaningful lives.

We are committed to growing our supported living services in the future, which may lead to the development and expansion of this service. We are therefore looking for someone who is resilient, open to change and able to adapt positively, while continuing to provide strong and consistent leadership for both people who live in the service and the staff team.
