Work directly with service users, staff and external professionals to develop, review and update personalised care plans
Ensure that support plans reflect the individual’s needs, preferences and promote their independence
Support the recruitment process, from greeting candidates and conducting service tours to delivering thorough, service-specific inductions for new team members
Foster a positive team culture that prioritises quality support, continuous improvement and staff wellbeing

This role is essential to the smooth running of services and requires a proactive leader who is confident working both independently and as part of a wider team.
