About The Big Life Group

The Big Life Group's mission is to fight for equity in health, in wealth and in life. We are a social business delivering a range of services across the North of England, covering everything from mental and physical health, addiction and criminal justice, to housing, education, family support and much more. What links them together is the way we work - The Big Life Way. We always stand shoulder-to-shoulder with people, working with them on the things that matter most to them. Everything we do is designed and informed by the needs, priorities and strengths of people and communities.

If you're looking for more than a job - if you want to be part of a team that's bold, creative and relentlessly committed to equity - then Big Life could be the place for you.

What you'll be doing

The Big Life Group is currently developing a fostering service, Big Life Futures Fostering. As part of our current development work, we are looking to appoint an Agency Decision Maker (ADM) who will be a senior member of the proposed fostering service.

Initially, prior to registration as a fostering agency, the post holder's responsibilities will be on the development, support and scrutiny of our plans for Big Life Futures Fostering.

The ADM will support the Proposed Registered Manager and Responsible Individual in the early developmental stages of the fostering agency and provide social work supervision to the Proposed Registered Manager.

Upon successful registration of the fostering agency, the ADM will carry out the regulatory duties of the fostering ADM including quality assurance and supporting with management and monitoring processes.

Unfortunately, we're not able to accept applications after the deadline.
