Service Manager

Do you have an in‐depth understanding of mental health issues and substantial experience of working in a health setting? Have you ever worked in employment and understand the benefit and value of meaningful work as a recovery tool? Welcome to Richmond Fellowship as an Employment Service Manager.

Right now, we’re looking for someone like you to manage the day‐to‐day running of Laser House, our Employment Service in Chertsey. As well as ensuring the quality of service and support provided to people who use our services, we’ll rely on you to manage service contracts, line manage front line staff and organise any building maintenance requirements. Whether you’re carrying out an induction, undertaking an investigation, putting team development plans in place or providing support to our business development team, one thing’s for sure – you won't be short of challenge and variety. Substantial experience gained managing a caseload of individuals with complex needs is a given, as well as being outcome driven and able to lead by example using your firm but inclusive management style. You’re open and encouraging too, and have lots of tact and diplomacy. What's more, you're great at managing conflicting priorities on time, have a flexible attitude to working hours and are willing to participate in on call arrangements. And, if you have experience of carrying out investigations, writing reports/recommendations or managing budgets, even better, although it's not essential.
