Make a Meaningful Step Forward in Your Career
We’re looking for an Assistant Locality Manager to join our team in Telford. This is a great opportunity if you’re ready to take on more responsibility while supporting the delivery of high-quality, person-centred care for people with learning disabilities and autism.
You’ll work alongside the Locality Manager to oversee 54 support workers who currently support 11 people across 9 supported living homes. This will increase to 12 people in the near future. The people we support have a wide range of needs — from prompting to full support — and your leadership will help ensure each person can live a fulfilling and independent life.
Although the role is mainly off-rota, you will occasionally work shifts within our supported living houses when required, helping you stay connected to the people we support and the team you lead.
What You’ll Do
* Support & Lead Teams: Work closely with the Locality Manager to motivate, guide and develop a large staff team, ensuring quality and consistency across multiple settings.
* Focus on Quality: Champion person-centred, strengths-based approaches including Active Support and personalisation.
* Operational Leadership: Contribute to rotas, recruitment, staff development, budgeting, and compliance.
* Collaborate with Partners: Build positive relationships with families, health professionals, and social care teams.
* Stay Hands-On: Step into direct support when needed, maintaining a practical understanding of day-to-day operations.
* Use Systems Effectively: Confidently work with digital tools, systems and reporting processes.
What We’re Looking For
To succeed in this role, you’ll need:
* Previous experience working in a social care or healthcare environment
* Understanding of supporting people with learning disabilities and autism
* Strong organisational, time-management and leadership skills
* Confidence using IT systems and learning new processes
* NVQ Level 3 in Health & Social Care (or equivalent) — or willingness to work towards this
* A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle
* Supervisory experience is beneficial but not essential
What We Offer
* Competitive salary: £33,217.30 per year (including 15% Off-Rota Allowance)
* 30 days annual leave (pro rata) with the option to buy/sell leave
* Funded training and qualifications to support your progression
* A strong focus on wellbeing, including a dedicated staff listening network
* **Bike-to-Work scheme
* Retail, restaurant, entertainment and leisure discounts**
* Enhanced DBS paid for by us
* Guaranteed interview for disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria
