Our client is a reputable and caring organisation dedicated to providing high-quality residential care and support services to children and young people in need across Kent. Their mission is to create a safe, nurturing, and positive environment where each child can thrive, develop essential life skills, and reach their full potential via therapeutic care practices.
Off the back of a period of growth, and building on their excellent work so far, they are looking for a dedicated and experienced Children's Deputy Manager to help lead a team and contribute to the vision of making a meaningful difference in the lives of these young individuals whilst also fitting into their core values.
As the Children's Deputy Manager, you will play a crucial role in opening and overseeing the day-to-day operations of a 2-bed Children’s EBD Residential Home in Sittingbourne. You will help lead a dedicated team of staff members, ensuring that the children and young people in care receive the highest standards of care, support, and guidance. You will be responsible for maintaining a safe and nurturing environment, managing staff, implementing effective policies and procedures, and liaising with relevant authorities and stakeholders.
Successful applicants must have a minimum Level 3 Diploma in Residential Child Care. Due to the role aiming for the successful candidate to open their own home in the future, it is also required that you have a minimum 1 years of employment within the children’s care sector in a similar role. Holding a clean and valid UK Driving License is also a requirement of the role.
If you are passionate about providing exceptional care and support to children and young people and possess the necessary skills and experience, we invite you to apply for the Children's Deputy Manager role.
We look forward to hearing from you!
