Exiting new service with new team
This role will at times be a challenging environment; therefore, resilience and patience will be important too. In order to support the team, we have a strong leadership team dedicated to this service, some of who are based on site, along with the support of key external colleagues across the Multi-Disciplinary Team.
About The Service
This service provides support to four young adults both male and female who have a learning disability and/or autism, and a range of health conditions such as epilepsy, allergies, dysphagia, sensory and verbal difficulties, along with physical and mobility difficulties. Each person will have their own self-contained purpose-built bungalow. There is also separate on-site staff facilities. You will join the team helping the four to transition into their new homes and on their journey to living as independently as possible.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Due to the needs of the individuals, each person will be supported at minimum on a 1-1 basis through the day and in some cases additional 2-1 for community access or health support, along with access to a shared waking night and sleep over staff at night. For this reason a degree of flexibility and being able to work as part of a rolling rota with the wider team is essential in order to ensure that the needs of the people we support are met consistently and without disruption.
Key Responsibilities
- To work with the Service Manager to oversee a supported living service, ensuring that systems and standards are maintained to a high quality.
- To ensure compliance with all external regulatory standards.
- To provide support and supervision of Support Workers within the identified team.
- To support and supervise the delivery of person centred services to all people using the service.
- To support the Service Manager in the completion of accurate rota and timesheet information.
- To promote and support the health and safety of both people using the service and support staff.
- To ensure that the actions of all staff directly supporting people using the service support their care, protection and well-being.
- To develop own knowledge and practice relative to continuous service improvement.
- To provide support and supervision to Area Office Support Workers, to ensure effective and efficient person centred service delivery.
