2 weeks ago

Inverness, United Kingdom The Richmond Fellowship Scotland Full time

Would you like a fantastic new career in health and social care?

Why not start your day hoping to make a difference and end your day knowing you did.

Here at The Richmond Fellowship Scotland we make a real difference in supporting people with their everyday lives. As an organisation, we support over 2,500 individuals with a variety of needs, some may have a physical/learning disability, autism, mental health issue, some with limited verbal communication and some with behaviours of concern. A number of people we support require assistance with moving and handling.

We are looking to recruit a full-time Behaviour Support Advisor to work in Highland and Moray until the 31st July 2024 to cover maternity leave. You will be part of the Positive Behaviour Support Team (based in South Lanarkshire) and your base will be your home and the Inverness Regional Office. You will be expected to travel to Glasgow on a regular basis for National team meetings and Continuous Professional Development. The Behaviour Support Advisor role is a key support function, providing guidance and support in managing the challenges faced in a complex service environment.

If you have experience of working with a range of people who present with behavioural challenges and have experience of managing services for people with learning disabilities or autism this could be the opportunity for you.

You will spend time in services and with staff teams that are supporting individuals with behavioural challenges and carry out behavioural assessments with the aim of improving quality of life. You will develop comprehensive, person-centred, Behaviour Support Plans and support the skill development of staff and management.

Working closely with the Regional PBS Manager you will plan, implement and evaluate behavioural interventions for individuals who present with behavioural challenges but also work closely with operational staff at all levels.

You will be confident in delivering presentations using a range of formats including PowerPoint, and will help develop learning materials for staff teams, delivering service specific training throughout our services.

You will assist in monitoring and reviewing progress, measuring against original objectives for behavioural input, including producing evaluation reports with graphic data.

There is 1 full time maternity cover post available (35 hours per week), though your base is in Inverness and your home there is still the requirement to be flexible to travel and work away from your original base across the North of Scotland, which can include overnight stays when required. Travel and subsistence payments will be made.

Previous experience of working with people with learning disabilities and complex needs, the ability to work as part of a team or on your own initiative, the ability to plan, prioritise and manage your own workload and the ability to work closely with a range of staff are required for this role.?

This is an excellent opportunity to make a change in your life and in that of the people we support. The work can be challenging, but as well as a competitive salary, enhanced pension contributions and annual leave, childcare vouchers and discounts at over 850 online and high street retailers, we can offer you a rewarding and satisfying role in your local community.?

**Closing Date**: Monday 4th December (We reserve the right to close this vacancy at any time)
