Staff Management:

- Coaching and mentoring front line staff while providing appropriate support including regular supervision.
- Identifying the training needs of your team and ensuring that this training is provided.

- Developing the ability of your team to produce accurate and effective support plans.
- Covering on-call shift work as and when needed.

Supported Individuals:

- Plan and facilitate meetings with individuals and important people in their lives in order to collate the appropriate information required to write an effective support plan.
- Effectively match supported individuals to staff members, keeping in mind the identified outcomes and goals to be achieved for said supported individual.

Organisational:

- Ensure that the standards set by the SSSC and Care Inspectorate as well as The Richmond Fellowship Scotland’s own standards are always met.
- Positively represent the values of The Richmond Fellowship Scotland when engaging with all external agencies.

There are a range of benefits to working with TRFS which include:

For this fantastic opportunity you will need at least 2 years previous experience of supporting individuals within care and already have or be willing to work towards your SVQ Level 3.

PVG checks will be required of all successful applicants; having a conviction will not necessarily debar you from working in this sector.
