Employability Manager

Are you a team leader on an employability contract looking for a results‑driven leadership role with real impact on the community? This role supports those with health conditions in returning to employment across Hampshire (Basingstoke, Fareham, Gosport, Havant, Hayling Island and potentially Andover and Winchester).

• Lead and motivate a team of Employment Specialists to deliver exceptional IPS and Supported Employment services.
• Provide regular supervision and coaching to maintain quality standards and improve outcomes.
• Monitor performance against KPIs and fidelity measures, implementing improvement plans where needed.
• Build strong relationships with NHS teams, referral partners, and local employers.
• Drive continuous improvement in systems and processes to enhance service delivery.

The salary for the role is £36K to £42K depending on experience.

We’re looking for an experienced manager already working on another employment programme, or someone from a recruitment or support service background who knows how to motivate people to deliver great results. The main thing is that you’re someone who cares about people — you can train, develop and inspire a team while building positive relationships with partners and stakeholders.
