The role involves managing supported accommodation for young families while ensuring compliance with regulations. The ideal candidate will have experience in managing teams, excellent communication skills, and a commitment to Christian values.

We are looking for a Service Manager to lead the staff team in our Springfield House (OFSTED) services in Milton Keynes to provide supported accommodation to young families, the parent/s being aged 16-24 years of age.
The Service manager leads and manages the staff team at Springfield House, and is responsible for both the support and Housing management functions of the service, working closely with the Local authorities housing and social care teams. At Springfield House we offer trauma informed support to vulnerable young. The staff team at Springfield House plan and deliver a high‑quality support service, which promotes client choice, opportunities to learn new skills, make positive life choices and achieve the best possible outcomes. Each family is supported to find move‑on accommodation depending on their circumstances and the housing options available, and this can be through private rent, housing associations or local councils. The successful candidate will be required to complete a registration with OFSTED and will assume responsibilities as the designated OFSTED Service Manager. This role will involve overseeing service delivery, maintaining compliance with statutory regulations, and ensuring that quality standards are consistently met. This role is vital to the success of the project providing leadership and inspiration to the staff and encouraging an enabling environment and leading in trauma‑informed practice within the values of The Salvation Army. The successful candidate will provide Christian spiritual leadership within the service, demonstrating a willingness to pray with individuals as part of their role, participate in worship, and engage openly in discussions about spiritual matters relevant to the service. Within Homelessness Services, the post‐holder is expected to have a personal Christian faith that informs their discernment and reflection, contributing to the ethos and values of a Christian‑based organisation. The role requires liaison with the Local Authority Commissioners as well as other agencies and stakeholders.
