About The Role

Do you have a passion for making a positive, lasting difference to children’s lives? Do you have supervisory or team-leading skills? Are you looking for a role that will support your journey towards management?

If the answer to all the above is ‘yes’, then a Deputy Manager role with Millstream Lodge, part of Kedleston Group, could be perfect for you.

Millstream Lodge is a 5-bed home for children who may experience social, emotional, and mental health difficulties and for those on the autism spectrum. The home is built on strong foundations of empathy, understanding, respect, and acceptance of each child’s individual background, experiences, preferences, challenges, and needs. You will support and nurture children to build their confidence and capability and reach high to achieve their full potential.

A day in the life of a Deputy Manager:

You will support children aged 9-17 with varying needs, some of whom may require high levels of supervision and support.

As a key member of the leadership team, not only will you ensure the welfare and care of each child but also guide and support the team of care workers to continually grow and shape their experience and practice based on a PACE approach to supporting the learning and social and emotional wellbeing of children.

You will be responsible for staff recruitment, induction supervision, and training. Additionally, you will lead shifts and plan rotas, ensuring placement and health plans, policies, procedures, and risk assessments are followed and education is supported.

You will build and role model positive relationships with colleagues and foster a culture of safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, ensuring that every child’s needs are met.

What Kedleston Group offers you:

Competitive rates of pay based on your experience, increasing in line with service and performance, and 6 weeks annual leave per year.

A programme of CPD which includes a personalised development plan based on your individual aspirations and learning objectives.

Sponsorship and support to achieve the Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management for Residential Childcare.

A fabulous network of like-minded professionals across our Group with whom to share knowledge and best practice.

Earn £500 by recommending a staff member to come and work with us.

Bonus payments attached to Good and Outstanding Ofsted outcomes.

Long service awards, recognition awards, birthday treats, access to a perks and discounts platform.

Access to our health and wellbeing support and 24-hour employee assistance service.

You must:

Have your Level 3 Diploma in Residential Childcare.

Have at least 2 years’ experience within residential childcare and working alongside young people.

Be 21 years old or above to apply due to industry regulations.

Have a valid driving licence.

If you want to develop your career and make a real and lasting difference to the lives of children, apply to be a Deputy Manager with Kedleston Group today.
