2 weeks ago


Huddersfield, Kirklees, United Kingdom Kirklees Council Full time £35,000 - £55,000 per year
Our vision for Kirklees children's homes is to provide fantastic places for our children and young people to live and grow up and for our staff to work, providing a 'family' environment where children and young people feel safe, cared for, and loved.

Our purpose is to provide a safe, stable and consistent living environment in which a young person can develop to their full potential. As corporate parents, we believe that residential care should always be a positive experience for Young People.

We are seeking a highly motivated, creative and skilled residential manager to join our leadership team to support our residential services to deliver outstanding care and support for our children.

You will be experienced in management and leadership in Residential Children's settings and have a proven track record of delivering high quality services for children. You will join an experienced leadership team and be supported to lead and drive our plans to build our residential children's offer in Kirklees. Our commitment to providing excellent residential homes for our children is further supported by recent investment into our estate with a sixth home due to open in the coming months.

If you are ready to join a highly motivated and committed leadership team focused on providing the best for children and young people, then we want to hear from you.

"Staff in our homes constantly strive for better outcomes for our children and see no limits to what is possible whilst delivering our services to the highest possible standards." Jon Peaker, Service Manager For Children's Residential.

We aim to provide a nurturing homely environment at Woodlands and to prepare Young People to move onto the next stage of their lives. Young People will be given the opportunities to develop and enhance their practical, social, emotional, and educational skills to become part of a family or engage in a smooth transition into another appropriate placement, either family based, residential provision, or to achieve semi-independence successfully.

We encourage our Young People to:
  • Build and maintain positive family links/relationships by encouraging and supporting contact and working to the longer-term living arrangements in the young person's Care Plan or Pathway Plan.
  • Take full advantage of the education and training opportunities available to them.
  • Complete individual and direct work with staff and other professionals to come to terms with past experiences and trauma. Young People are supported to develop positive strategies for coping and keeping themselves safe.
  • Accept help and support from other agencies when they need it.
  • Take part in wider activities and hobbies in the community.
  • Build and sustain friendships.
  • Participate in a programme of ongoing work to prepare for independence.
Managing a residential children's home is extremely rewarding, it is a challenging environment at times, but seeing the positive outcomes a child makes along their journey makes it all worthwhile. As the manager of the children's home, you will be leading a large, dedicated and passionate team. You will have the support of other residential managers alongside the assistant service manager, service manager and head of service.

We work closely with the Emotional Wellbeing Team who provide clinical support to ensure we meet the needs of the young people we support whist developing the skills of the team.

  • Registered Manager qualifying status or working towards
  • Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management for Residential Childcare (England) or equivalent. If you do not currently have a Level 5 diploma, we will support you achieve this
  • Knowledge of how to support the physical, psychological and social development of young people
  • In-depth knowledge of Safeguarding and child protection procedures
  • Extensive knowledge of the Children's Home Regulations 2015 and the Ofsted inspection framework
