Job Description

New Year, New Start?

Are you looking to progress but still have steps to learn?

I am recruiting for a Deputy Manager to join a young, and growing, very successful EBD home. They can house 3 young people, and because of the building’s location, they cater to low-risk. Due to the team’s hard work, the home is OFSTED rated ‘Good’.

With the starting salary of £30,000 and dependent on experience there is flexibility to negotiate.

The home is fully staffed but is looking for a Deputy Manager to aid the Registered Manager in the day-to-day running of the home. I am looking for someone who either has new experience at the level or someone who has delved into management and what’s the step up.

Does this sound like the right role for you?
