About the Role
As a Team Leader, you will be responsible for the day-to-day performance and development of a team of Care and Support Workers. You’ll champion a culture of care and resilience, supporting your team’s wellbeing, addressing challenges with empathy and determination, and creating an environment where every team member can thrive and deliver outstanding care.

Why Join Us?
