Deputy Manager (Children's Residential Home)

Do you love working with young people and want to help make a significant contribution to children's lives? Are you competent in leading others?

If so, we are looking for a Deputy Manager at Candle Lodge Children's Home in Chandlers Ford and Abenrise Children's Home in Winchester.

The care we offer in our children's homes is guided by the philosophy that we value the children we look after, and their welfare is of paramount importance in all decisions and planning. We believe that children are children first and should be provided with opportunities to mix and play with friends, develop life and social skills and fulfil their potential within a safe and secure environment.

In this challenging, yet extremely rewarding role, you will be working closely with the Registered Manager, residential care practitioners, team supervisors, families and professionals to support children's social and emotional development, create positive experiences and encourage healthier lifestyles.

We are looking for an individual with strong leadership and motivational skills and ability to take on the opportunity to continuously improve the service.
