We are seeking a dedicated, ambitious, and compassionate Registered Supported Accommodation Manager for our beautifully furnished brand-new Supported Accommodation service for young people aged 16–18 based in Walsall.

We have a highly present and visible Responsible Individual who is committed to providing hands-on support throughout the registration process, opening phase, and beyond. You will benefit from strong leadership, guidance, and operational support while maintaining the autonomy to establish a service that reflects your passion and expertise.

* Ensure young people are supported to develop practical independent living skills including budgeting, cooking, tenancy readiness, health management, education, employment, and positive relationships.
* Manage staff recruitment, induction, supervision, appraisal, performance, and professional development in line with safer recruitment practices and organisational policy.
* Ensure staffing levels, mandatory training, and evidence-informed practice support high-quality support delivery.
* Maintain effective communication with local authorities, social workers, personal advisers, families (where appropriate), education providers, healthcare professionals, and partner agencies to promote positive outcomes.
* Monitor and review young people's progress, adapting support plans to reflect changing needs and aspirations.
* Ensure safeguarding procedures are fully implemented and promote a safe, supportive, and empowering environment for all young people.
* Maintain accurate records, reports, and administrative systems in accordance with regulatory requirements.
* Represent the service professionally in multi-agency meetings, commissioning meetings, placement reviews, and Ofsted inspections, building strong relationships with local authorities and commissioning partners while upholding organisational values and professional standards.
Essential Requirements
* Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management for Residential Childcare, Leadership and Management, or another qualification accepted by Ofsted for the registration of a Supported Accommodation Manager.
* Minimum of 1 year's management experience within supported accommodation, residential childcare, leaving care, housing support, or a similar regulated setting.
* Minimum of 2 years' experience working with vulnerable young people aged 16–18 or within children's social care, supported accommodation, residential care, leaving care, or semi-independent services.
