We have several small residential homes, which runs 365 days a year, for children, and young people for which we invite referrals. The homes cater for vulnerable and in some instances challenging children and young people. Our homes provide a therapeutic environment to support children and young people who have a variety of needs. This is an exciting role for an ambitious, driven and dynamic Assistant Home Manager. The Assistant Residential Manager will support the Residential Managers in the efficient running of the residential home. You will largely be responsible for assisting the Residential Manager in the efficient operational management of the house as well as providing excellent care to the children and young people. The Assistant Manager will have responsibility for a managing a team of staff therefore, you must be experienced in motivating and providing support to colleagues when necessary. As part of an ongoing professional development, you would also be required to highlight training needs, organising and oversee the completion of training plans, supervision, rota management and have an excellent understanding of national care standards. The Assistant Manager will have the ability to set, monitor and meet key performance indicators which are also an essential part of this role.

Share responsibility for ensuring that all practices are developed and performed within the organizational policies and procedures and the legislative framework pertaining to children and young people.

Our primary aim is to create an environment of constant warmth, predictability and responsiveness to need, with the opportunity for children to experience new models of adult/child and peer group relationships. It is our belief that, in these new relationships, children can experience conflict with positive rather than negative resolutions. Main duties will include assisting the Manager with devising and monitoring of systems to ensure that the staff team carries out all duties and responsibilities as prescribed within their job descriptions, relevant occupational standards, National Care Standards and policies and procedures. As part of an ongoing professional development, you would also be required to highlight training needs, organising and oversee the completion of training plans, supervision and rota management.

A number of hours will be spent attending meetings, staff meetings, supervision, annual appraisals, training, and young people’s reviews. Whilst the Manager guides the work of the Assistant Manager there is an expectation that the post holder is able to deputise in the Manager’s absence. At all times the Assistant Manager is expected to conduct themselves professionally and adhere to Spark of Genius Policies and Procedures, and that to achieve this they will successfully complete induction and ongoing training.
