Radis Community Care and those we support are currently seeking a positive, caring and compassionate individual to join us as Team Leader at our Supported Living Service in Leominster.

About the role

You will join our team in supporting people with mild learning disabilities to live full, active lives at home and in their local community. No two days are the same, and the role is varied. We treat each person as an individual, providing person-centred support tailored to their needs. As Team Leader, you will motivate and guide our support workers to promote independence, choice, dignity and respect, while maintaining the highest standards of care. We provide a safe, secure home where people can live independently with support from our high-quality team.

The role will blend line management and supervisory tasks, record keeping, organising, co ordinating and facilitating our support teams as well as working alongside the team in supporting with health care, personal care, food preparation, household tasks and supporting individuals to keep in contact with family and friends. Accessing and playing an active role in the community is important and you will support the enablement of individuals to develop the skills and confidence to live a full, active, exciting and independent lifestyle.

Wendy Says….

Working Patterns

The role of Team Leader is a full time role, working a combination of administration days and days providing direct support alongside our support worker team. Some weekend working is expected on a rotational basis.

Experience & Qualifications are not Essential – But Kindness, Compassion & Enthusiasm are!

A positive experience of supporting learning disabled adults in a social care setting is great, but your values, enthusiasm, willingness to work hard is more important and we do provide all training. We welcome applications from those with previous Team Leader experience and high quality individuals with previous support worker experience looking for your first step into leadership and management. We are looking for those who want to use their work and life experience, skills and interests to make a difference to the lives of those we support.
