Lead People. Inspire Recovery. Make a Difference.
Are you an experienced mental health professional ready to take the next step in your leadership career?
Do you have the passion to motivate a team, drive high standards of care, and support people to achieve greater independence? If so, we would love to hear from you.
We're looking for a dedicated and inspirational Mental Health Team Leader to join our purpose-built, modern rehabilitation service, Heathy House, in Halifax. Supporting up to 10 men with mental health needs, Heathy House provides a structured and recovery-focused environment where individuals can build confidence, develop life skills and prepare for more independent living.
As Team Leader, you'll work closely with the Registered Manager to lead from the front, support and develop colleagues, and help create an environment where both residents and staff can thrive.
Working Pattern
37.5 hours per week on a structured four-week rolling rota.
- You'll benefit from knowing your shifts in advance, with a mixture of early, day and late shifts.
- The earliest start time is 6:00am and the latest finish time is 10:00pm, with the rota operating predominantly Monday to Friday and including approximately one Saturday shift every four weeks.
- Flexibility is important in this role, as occasional cover may be required to support the needs of the service along with the requirement to participate in a regional on-call service.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a confident leader who wants to make a genuine difference whilst being part of an organisation renowned for delivering outstanding mental health services.
About Heathy House
Heathy House is a modern 10-bed residential rehabilitation service designed to bridge the gap between inpatient care and independent living.
Our focus is on empowering individuals to move forward in their recovery journey by developing practical life skills, improving wellbeing, building resilience and increasing opportunities within their local communities.
