About the role
An exciting opportunity has arisen for the role of Fostering Service Manager with Northamptonshire Children's Trust.
As the fostering service manager, you will be responsible for leading the fostering service to develop and deliver high quality fostering services in line with the appropriate regulatory and legal frameworks, building on the progress already made in achieving the Ofsted judgement of GOOD in January 2024. You will be pivotal in maintaining collaborative working relationships with colleagues within the Children's Trust, foster carers and partner agencies to ensure that all children in our care are well supported to maximise their life chances.
As a Trust our Fostering Service is registered with Ofsted as an Independent Fostering Agency (IFA) and the Fostering Service Manager will be required to register with Ofsted as the 'Registered Manager' of the IFA.

You will lead on the review and development of practice and policy within the fostering service in line with changes to regulation and legislation and in response to local and national developments including learning from research.
You will manage/monitor the budget for the fostering service in liaison with the Strategic Manager to ensure resources are used effectively and efficiently.
You will write and, when required, present reports in relation to the work of the fostering service to other stakeholders and managers including the Corporate Parenting Boards for North and West Northamptonshire.
You will be the Registered Manager for the IFA
About youWe are looking for someone who is passionate about developing and delivering high quality services for Children, Young People, and their Families. You will have a creative and flexible approach that will support the service as we move forward.

We are looking for someone who can lead, as well as manage the service as we move forward and who is able to develop and maintain respectful, collaborative working relationships with key stakeholders.
