An Assistant Service Coordinator to work alongside our Service Coordinator and help lead the team day to day.

Approachable, organised and confident enough to guide and support others day to day.
Can listen carefully to the team and keep the people we support at the heart of decisions.

Be a visible part of the service, supporting staff and guiding good practice day to day.
Help with rotas, problem solving and keeping the service running smoothly.

Help the people we support stay connected to their community, their friends, their families and the things they enjoy.
