Our Rhondda Children's Home is recruiting for a Deputy Manager. We are looking for an enthusiastic and highly motivated Deputy Manager to become an integral part of our support team. In this role, you will support and care for our young people and be responsible for a small staff team.

A Level 3 qualification in Children and Young People is essential for this role and you should be willing to study towards the Level 5 Diploma. The ideal candidate will have experience of team leadership and the following characteristics to be successful in this role:

• Resilience - We support some of the most vulnerable children in society who have varying degrees of emotional behavioural difficulties, autism, ADHD and associated difficulties so there will be times where your resilience is challenged.

• Organisation - As well as supervising the staff team, you'll need to be confident and organised in updating care plans and reporting information that will be relevant to the care of our young people.


• Caring - Our young people require the best care we can offer. If you are a naturally caring and compassionate person, this is the role for you.


• Attentive - No young person is the same so being attentive to understand them and identify areas where we can support is important.
