Advice & Wellbeing Team Lead
North East London Region
Are you an experienced people leader with a background in support services, wellbeing, advice, advocacy or community-based support?
We're looking for an empathetic and inspiring Advice & Wellbeing Team Lead to manage a team of five Advice & Wellbeing Specialists delivering person-centred support to residents across our North-East region. This role is based on the leadership responsibilities described within the role profile and includes oversight of service delivery, complex cases, safeguarding, referrals and team performance.
About The Role
You'll lead a specialist team providing holistic advice, wellbeing and advocacy support to residents. You'll oversee referrals, triage and caseload management, ensuring residents receive the right support at the right time.
You'll provide regular supervision, coaching and wellbeing support to colleagues, creating an inclusive and high-performing team culture where people can thrive.
Working closely with internal teams, local authorities, charities and community organisations, you'll build strong partnerships that improve outcomes for residents and strengthen our local support offer.
This is a hands-on leadership role and, where required, you'll support complex cases and undertake joint visits with residents as well as supporting community wellbeing hub delivery.
