Participant Supervisor

The We Can project is a new service delivered as part of our Supported Employment Programme, which supports people with complex and multiply disabilities to progress from high levels of support to a more independent support package.

Based on the concept of Positive Behaviour Support, the team supports individuals to recognise and adapt behaviors that challenge so that participants can engage in a wider range of different activities within a work focused environment. The foundation of the project is to provide people with choice and control over how they spend their time.

The Participant Supervisor will work directly with participants (adults) and support workers to support development and progression to achieve lower levels of support need. The Participant Supervisor will be responsible for staff rotas, working with Mentors to develop support plans and providing day to day supervision of support staff.

We are looking for someone with proven experience of providing a positive and supportive learning environment for adults with complex and multiple disability.

**Safeguarding**

Safeguarding and protecting children and adults at risk is a high priority for Pembrokeshire County Council. We aim to support vulnerable children and adults at risk to ensure they are as safe as they can possibly be. We are committed to ensuring their safety and will take action to safeguard their well-being. The Council’s Corporate Safeguarding Policy provides a framework for every member of staff and Service within the Council, setting out responsibilities in relation to safeguarding and protecting children and adults at risk as well as the methods by which the Council will be assured that it is fulfilling its duties.

This policy applies to all Council employees and workforce, councillors, volunteers and also service providers that are commissioned by the Council. Safeguarding is everyone's business whether they work for, or on behalf of, the Council.

**Support & Additional Info**
- Please note, we have a legal obligation to consider employees for suitable alternative employment if their posts are at risk; therefore prior consideration will be given to existing employees who meet the person specification and are registered on our redeployment pool.
