Job description

Positive Behaviour Support Practice Lead

Job Introduction

What does it take to become a leading health and social care organisation in the UK? It takes people who can turn lives around every day - providing encouragement, delivering innovative services and generally improving life for individuals with a learning disability or those affected by drug and alcohol use or mental health needs.

We are an experienced capable provider of complex learning disability, autism and mental health support services in England. Our experience includes being a market-leader in the provision of support under the Transforming Care Programme.

We are seeking a National PBS Support Lead Role that provides further resilience across our delivery capabilities and practice development.

Role Responsibility

You will play a key part in helping us to further develop our PBS approach and proactively support us to enhance positive quality of life outcomes for the people we support and to reduce restrictive practices. Additionally, you will lead and develop a National PBS and Autism Practitioner Team.

As the PBS Practice Lead, you will contribute to the development and implement our PBS strategy, and shape PBS competency, quality, assurance and improvement across Learning Disabilities. You will also be responsible for enhancing individual case referral and associated management activities and have a direct caseload.

You will help support and manage our delivery solutions by working in collaboration with our Operations colleagues and Business Development Teams to provide your insight and guidance. This role will also provide best practice leadership to local delivery teams and mentor resources engaged in PBS assessments and support.

The Ideal Candidate

You will need to have a significant experience of working as Positive Behaviour Support Practitioner and hold formal relevant qualification.

You will also be qualified or be able to work towards recognised Trainer competencies to deliver expert instruction to your team and a wider internal audience.

Collaboration and teamwork with others will be essential, and you will need to use sound judgement when both leading and informing analysis, solution creation and decision processes.

You will need the confidence and skill to gain trust, alignment and consensus across multiple audiences.
