Complete and review risk assessments and behaviour support plans.
Provide guidance and leadership in supporting individuals with complex needs and behaviours that challenge.
Oversee medication management processes, audits, and safe practice.

Partnership & Stakeholder Engagement

Build and maintain strong relationships with individuals we support, their families, and advocates.
Liaise effectively with external professionals including social workers, commissioners, GPs, and allied health professionals.
Act as the main point of contact for escalated concerns, incidents, or complaints, ensuring timely resolution and learning.

Administrative & Business Responsibilities

Maintain accurate and confidential records in line with GDPR requirements.
Monitor service performance and contribute to service improvement planning.
Support financial and resource management, including equipment, maintenance, and health & safety checks.

About You

You will be a confident, compassionate, and organised leader with experience supporting individuals with autism, learning disabilities, and/or mental health needs, including complex or challenging behaviours.

Essential:

Experience as a Service Manager, Deputy Manager, Supervisor, or Team Leader within health and social care
