Job Introduction

We have an opportunity as a Supported Living Manager (who will also be the Registered Manager) to join our services in Salford and Bolton where we provide 24 hour supported living support for adults that live with Learning Disabilities and additional health issues.

As Supported Living Manager, you will be responsible for 18 homes across the area.

We endeavour to create positive family relationships offering a good circle of support. There is a strong focus on supporting individuals' lives in a person centred way which includes various activities, shopping, managing own budgets and cooking. We tailor our services to enable people to be as independent as possible.

Everyone has their own unique reason for choosing Turning Point. It might be our passion for making a difference – not a profit organisation. Whatever your reason, you’ll enjoy working with like–minded people who believe in inspiring people to create positive change.

Across the varied regions, sectors and settings we operate within, our organization is held together by a shared vision – and our people are connected by the same values. These include belief in potential, creating environments where everyone can thrive, confidence in communication, embracing positive change and always treating each other as individuals.

Role Responsibility

As the Supported Living Manager, your focus will always be on ensuring the delivery of consistently high-quality services. You and your team will develop and maintain flexible and realistic support plans using our excellent digital care management system in collaboration with the people we support, family members and other professionals. You will be responsible for everyday operational management.

This position would also suit a Team Manager/Team Leader someone who currently has management responsibilities, who is looking to take that next step in their career into a more senior management position. You will be managing a team through a time of change and having a background in a supporting living setting will be an advantage. Flexibility is essential and you should also have a full driving license and access to a car.
