Shrewsbury, Shropshire

Perthyn is a large not-for-profit organisation supporting around 190 adults with learning disabilities across England and Wales. We are committed to providing just the right amount of support to enable each person to play to their strengths, maximise their independence and live a full and active life.

We invest heavily in people through comprehensive training, leadership development and career progression opportunities. Our values place the people we support at the centre of everything we do, promoting choice, control, inclusion and meaningful outcomes.

In Shropshire, we support people living in their own homes, both in shared accommodation and individual tenancies. People may require support with everyday living skills, maintaining relationships, managing finances, communication, emotional wellbeing and achieving personal goals. Our Positive Behaviour Support Team works closely with managers and staff to promote positive outcomes and quality of life.

Reporting to the Head of Support & Inclusion, you will provide leadership and direction to a group of Supported Living Managers who each lead with a cluster of houses within the Shropshire region.

You will work alongside an experienced Regional Manager who oversees the other half of the county, providing excellent opportunities for coaching, mentoring and professional development. This makes the role ideal for someone with strong operational management experience who is ambitious, eager to learn and ready to broaden their leadership responsibilities.

As part of Perthyn's Senior Management Team, you will play a key role in maintaining high-quality support, driving service development, supporting organisational growth and ensuring compliance with regulatory and contractual requirements.
