  • Recruiting, developing, and training staff within appropriate legislative or NVQ frameworks and devising effective and wellrun staff rotas
  • Overseeing and monitoring the quality of risk tools, assessments, and personalised support plans
  • Liaising with staff to ensure positive outcomes, with a focus on maintaining tenancies and move on objectives
  • Promoting safe working practices by undertaking risk assessments to support, reduce or eliminate risks
  • Completing and monitoring health and safety checks within the service

Skills and experiences:
