  • Assist customers in understanding and planning their support package, focussing on positive outcomes to maximise customers potential and enable them to exercise choice and control
  • Provide advocacy to support customers and their families when required
  • Liaise with relevant external agencies to ensure the maximum support is delivered to enable customers to access and maintain a level of integration within the wider community
  • Manage the implementation of safeguarding principles and responsibilities to ensure the safety of customers and to avoid potential risk to stakeholders and the business
  • Promote safe practices and undertake risk assessments within legislative frameworks and business protocols, escalating issues as appropriate
  • Contribute, as appropriate, to special programmes and projects in support of the Group's values and objectives

 

Skills and experiences:

  • Experience of working with vulnerable children and young adults
  • Proven knowledge of key needs and services for relevant customer group
  • Some knowledge of relevant legislative and regulatory requirements
  • Good understanding of written and spoken English
  • Good communication skills
  • Good interpersonal and customer care skills
  • Ability to demonstrate a positive and accepting approach to customers whatever their needs
  • Ability to keep accurate records and clearly communicate relevant information
  • Ability to make accurate simple calculations
  • Email and internet communications

 

Are you ready to be your best?

Brilliant work deserves brilliant benefits As part of our commitment to making Sanctuary Supported Living a great place to work, here are just some of the ways we’ll reward you:

  • At least 25 days paid holiday, rising to 30 days after 5 years’ service (plus public holidays) pro rata
