**Those huge small victories**

Working in our Children’s Homes means being a part of a young person’s day to
day life. This means being there for the highest highs and lowest lows. Our
team leaders enable our young people to get their childhood back and create

pathways to become well rounded adults – an incredibly rewarding role to have.

There will be challenges along the way but there will also be the smallest

moments which feel like a huge small victory!

Our homes accommodate young people with social, emotional and mental health
needs, and our aim is to create the best possible outcome for the young people
in our care. Our team leaders are fulfilled by the idea of affecting even the
smallest positive changes in our young people, so we celebrate the little

things.

**Get out what you put in**

You’ll be a part of taking care of our young people day to day, making sure
things run smoothly and creating lasting memories. As a team leader you will
also make sure that the staff team are supported and the home is operating at
our high standards, prepared to step up to deputise for the Registered and
Deputy Managers. We’re looking for someone able to relate to and build
relationships with our young people. Compassionate, emotionally resilient, and
supportive, you’ll also be able to provide the leadership that inspires your

colleagues.
