Service Manager; Specialist Service

Shift Patterns

Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm, with an expectation of flexibility to meet the needs of the service. Evening and weekend work may be required.

Prosperity Care & Wellbeing is a dynamic and innovative provider looking at the 8 principles of wellbeing for health, social care and wellbeing services based in the centre of Gloucester.

Everyone wants a purposeful job - to do something meaningful. At Prosperity Care & Wellbeing we can give you that. You will have the opportunity to develop your career and experience personal growth and fulfilment as well as being integral in developing the culture of the business.

As a Service Manager, you will be responsible for the day-to-day leadership and oversight of our specialist supported living services. You will support individuals with complex needs, including challenging behaviour, and Positive Behaviour Support (PBS).

Our services operate within structured and, where necessary, restrictive environments to ensure safety, stability, and wellbeing for both individuals and staff. You will ensure these environments are therapeutic, proportionate, and legally compliant, balancing risk management with dignity, choice, and person-centred care.

You will lead teams to deliver consistent, high-quality support, embedding PBS approaches, maintaining clear routines, and ensuring restrictive practices are used appropriately, reviewed regularly, and only when necessary. Safeguarding, quality assurance, and staff development will be central to your role, alongside creating environments where individuals can live safely, meaningfully, and with respect.

We genuinely seek people who care deeply and are truly committed to transforming lives. We believe great leaders embody empathy, support, resilience, respect, and courage — the personal qualities that will enable you to thrive in this role.
