Devon, United Kingdom Devon County Council Full time

Are you looking for a challenging and rewarding career with real opportunities to positively impact the lives of our young people here at Amber? Are you passionate, resilient, dedicated and enthusiastic? If so this is the role for you. 

We offer supported accommodation to homeless, unemployed and disadvantaged young people (aged 18 to 30) who are facing multiple disadvantage including lack of training, education and employment, addiction and substance misuse problems, mental health difficulties and may have been involved in crime and offending behaviour

We offer 24/7 residential support with a full-time employability and well-being programme designed to inspire, educate, motivate and - most importantly - to make possible. We aspire to offer everything under one roof that marginalised young people need to rediscover their potential and move forward with their lives into Employment, Training and Education and somewhere safe and sustainable to live.

The role of the team leader is an extremely important one, and one which demands patience, leadership and the ability to implement the Amber Course and Ethos. This will require flexible and lateral thinking on the part of the team leader.

The team leaders will be responsible for the development and eventual moving on of each young person in their team. The team will consist of up to ten young persons at any one time.

The team leaders will be expected to plan and implement the delivery of The Amber Programme, motivating our young persons, so they can elevate their self-esteem and self-reliance, enabling them to progress into employment, education or training.

Primary Responsibilities, Tasks and Duties. 
• Ensure that each young person is progressing, and that the progression is recorded and can be shown through the use of individual folders, internal reports and external progress report
• Organise projects daily, which should include external community projects as well as internal maintenance projects on the property and land. The programme is to include fun activities and projects at its core, in order to maintain the young person’s motivation.
• Support residents in completing daily maintenance and room checks.
• To make sure that each team member pays his/her rent on time and in full.
• Ensure that the risk assessments are carried out and recorded for activities and projects.
• To make sure that health and safety procedures are followed, and that neither residents nor staff are put at risk.
• To complete a thorough needs assessment for each new resident and to begin a support plan.
• To build strong relationships with external services and agencies to support the needs of our residents.
• Carry out assessments risk/initial/comprehensive to inform resident’s programme journey 
• Carry out interventions relevant to individual needs including 1:1 sessions and group work/programme facilitation. 
• Develop and contribute to the through care needs of service users, supporting them in the development of move-on plans which are appropriate to their needs. 

Experience 
• Proven ability to supervise and manage people and draw on their experience, interests and expertise to maximise the potential for the course.
• Experience of working with a disadvantaged or vulnerable client group with complex needs.

Skills 
• To maintain and project motivation and enthusiasm in a pressured environment.
• Provide effective and enthusiastic leadership for the team and to foster teamwork and good practice.
• Ability to work creatively and proactively with residents, staff and other participants to explore opportunities for the development of Amber; to take imaginative ideas and form them into practical projects, programmes and activities.
• To communicate effectively with and build relationships with a wide range of people, both verbally and in writing.
• Ability to prioritise and manage workload effectively, to make sound decisions and solve problems within a known framework.
• A good understanding of the issues and barriers our client group has to overcome in order to progress.
• The centre at Chawleigh is a very rural setting, so the ability to commute daily to the site with ease is essential.
