Permanent Team Leader Opportunity

Your new company
This is a newly opened LD and PD home in Walsall. The home currently has one young person at the moment, with a second due to move in in the coming weeks and with a maximum capacity of 6 beds, they hope to continuing growing both the number of young people they support and their staffing team. Having visited the home myself, it is clear that the Registered Manager and Deputy Manager have been skilful in creating a homely feel, wanting the young people in their care to feel like they are at home. Their current staff team come from a range of backgrounds and have a range of different types of experience, but work together well, supporting each other and sharing ideas to create a happy home.
Your new role
