Job description

As a newly qualified or experienced Nurse Care Manager you’ll thrive on enabling adults with learning disabilities to realise their potential and live life to the full. 

It’s not about remotely coordinating a caseload, our Nurse Care Managers change lives by bringing a person-centred holistic approach to those who need support as well as their carers, family and wider community.

It’s an exciting time to join our adult social care team in Leeds. As key partners with the National Development Team for Inclusion we’ve led on developing the strength-based approach to social care delivery. We want everyone we work with to feel listened to, empowered, and to receive support that reflects their hopes and what really matters to them.

Our Better Lives Strategy sets out our ambition for improving lives in Leeds. We want people with care and support needs to be able to do the things that matter to them and live in a good home within a caring community. It’s about more than social care, it’s a council-wide initiative so that services will work together to make a real difference to individuals and their communities.

Leeds City Council is one of the largest employers in the region with over 14,000 employees. We seek to recruit and develop talented individuals who embody our council values and ambitions.

About you

You must be registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council as a Learning Disability Nurse on commencement in post.

You will bring to the role: 

  • knowledge and understanding of current Learning Disability practice and the role of a multi-disciplinary team, including statutory and voluntary agencies
  • skills in effective assessment, planning, intervention and evaluation of work in supporting people with learning disabilities
  • ability to build good working relationships with professional colleagues and partners and engage positively with individuals, families and carers
  • experience of using a person-centred, holistic approach and creativity in problem solving and reflective practice techniques 

About the role 

You will be central to a network of partners working across health and social care in Leeds who are committed to increasing integration for better services supporting people with learning disabilities.

Our preceptorship offers you a supported first year of employment alongside a robust supervision and appraisal framework, as you build your professional skills and confidence. This is just the start of your career with us; we have clear career progression pathways and strive to achieve the right balance between support and challenge in all roles.

We value connection and professional relationships so we continually learn from each other and from the people and families we are working alongside. These strong support networks and learning opportunities enable our colleagues to deliver the best possible outcomes for the adults they work with.

What we offer you

We take pride in offering the best employee experience, with benefits including:

  • a competitive salary and annual leave entitlement plus statutory holidays
  • membership of the West Yorkshire Pension Fund with generous employer contributions
  • flexible and hybrid working arrangements subject to service requirements
  • a clear career pathway and continuing professional development opportunities
  • a range of staff benefits to help you boost your wellbeing and make your money go further
