We’re looking for an experienced and confident Deputy Manager to join a passionate, supportive team in a 4-bed residential children’s home for young people with emotional and behavioural difficulties (EBD). The role involves working closely with the Registered Manager to help run the home day-to-day, support staff, and ensure high standards of care and safeguarding are maintained.
This is a hands-on role that requires someone calm, organised and emotionally resilient. You’ll lead shifts, supervise staff, contribute to care planning and behaviour support, and take responsibility when the Registered Manager is off-duty. A key part of the role is building strong, stable relationships with both the young people and the team around them.
We’re a team that values openness, consistency and teamwork. If you’re passionate about making a difference, ready to lead by example, and want to work somewhere that will support your development, this could be a great next step.

* Support the Registered Manager in the day-to-day running of the home
* Lead shifts and take full responsibility in the Manager’s absence
* Supervise and mentor staff, including carrying out regular supervisions
* Help manage the staff rota, annual leave, and sickness cover
* Maintain up-to-date care plans, risk assessments and behaviour support plans
* Support staff to implement care plans in line with each child’s individual needs
* Respond to safeguarding concerns in line with procedures
* Support inspections, audits and regulatory compliance
* Build positive relationships with young people, using a therapeutic approach
* Attend and contribute to reviews, planning meetings and multi-agency forums
* Monitor medication systems and ensure MAR charts are accurate
* Support with recruitment, staff induction and ongoing development
* Maintain a safe, clean and welcoming home environment
What we’re looking for:
* Level 3 Residential Childcare qualification (or equivalent)
* At least 2 years’ experience in a children’s residential setting
* Experience in a senior or supervisory role
* Confident dealing with safeguarding and challenging behaviours
* Good written and verbal communication skills
* Able to lead by example and support team development
* Emotionally resilient and calm under pressure
