    Service Manager

    SNAP Special Needs Action Project
    Full time
    £34,000 - £38,000
    Hybrid: Inverness
    Closing

    SNAP is looking for an experienced, compassionate and enthusiastic Service Manager to help lead our services and support our team through the next stage of SNAP’s development. This is a senior role – but we’re not looking for someone who wants to lead from behind a desk. We’re looking for someone who wants to understand our services, know our staff, meet our families and see first-hand the difference SNAP makes. This is an important role at the heart of SNAP. Our Service Manager leads the day-to-day delivery of our services, supports and develops our operational team, and helps make sure that every service is safe, well organised, person-centred and responsive to the people and families who rely on us. SNAP is registered with the Care Inspectorate as a support service (not care at home). The successful candidate will take on the responsibilities of Registered Manager for this service, working closely with the Care Inspectorate and meeting relevant SSSC requirements. You will be part of SNAP’s leadership team and will work directly with the Chief Officer to support service quality, workforce development and future growth. • Leading and supporting staff and volunteers across SNAP’s services. • Overseeing safe, high-quality service delivery and ensuring individual needs, risk assessments and support plans are understood and followed. • Maintaining strong safeguarding, regulatory, health and safety and quality assurance standards. • Supporting recruitment, induction, supervision, appraisal, training and staff development. • Building positive relationships with children, young people, adults, families, carers and professionals. • Overseeing referrals, reviews, incidents, complaints and service improvement actions. • Working with the Chief Officer and wider team to develop services, plan staffing and manage resources responsibly. • Undertake the responsibilities of Registered Manager for our regulated services. You don’t need to come from one particular type of organisation. You might currently work in social care, children’s services, disability services, community support or another related field. What we really want is someone who combines experience and professional confidence with compassion and common sense. You’ll be someone who can make difficult decisions when needed, but who also listens. Someone who understands regulation and quality, without losing sight of the individual person behind the paperwork. And someone who believes that supporting and developing a team is every bit as important as directing one. Experience of leading regulated care or support services would be particularly valuable. You will need to hold a relevant qualification in health and social care, social work, education, community learning and development, or a related discipline. This could mean an SVQ3, an HNC or a practice award in the supervisor or manager category. We are happy to discuss supporting the right candidate to complete an additional qualification where appropriate. • Experience of leading or delivering care, support or similar services for children, young people or adults with additional support needs or learning disabilities. • Experience of supervising, motivating and developing staff. • A sound understanding of safeguarding, risk management and quality in care or support settings. • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills. • Strong organisation, resilience and the ability to make balanced decisions in a changing environment. Where you’ll work The role will be based across SNAP’s offices at Drummond School and Seafield Road, Inverness. Following an initial 12-week period, there may be some flexibility for home working where this suits the needs of the role and the organisation. The role may also involve some travel associated with SNAP services, activities and meetings. Because this is a job where you can see the difference you make. This is an opportunity to take on a genuinely influential role within a well-established Highland charity, joining SNAP at an important point in its development. You’ll be part of a committed and experienced staff and volunteer team, within an organisation that has strong roots in the Highland community and is continuing to evolve in response to what children, young people, adults and families need. You will have the opportunity to: • help shape how SNAP’s services develop for the future; • play a key role in maintaining the quality and sustainability of our services; • develop and improve services in response to changing needs; and • be part of an organisation where relationships, community and the people we support really matter. If you’re looking for your next leadership role and want it to be somewhere that genuinely matters, we’d love to hear from you.

    At Columba 1400, we enable young people, especially those from tough realities, and the key adults in their lives to lead lives of purpose, meaning and contribution. We believe everyone already holds greatness within them, and your role would be to help them discover it. If you are someone who comes alive when bringing groups together, facilitating meaningful conversations and creating warm, brave spaces where young people and adults feel seen, listened to, valued, and able to explore who they are and who they might yet become, then you may be exactly who we are looking for.

You will contribute to changing lives, schools and communities by facilitating transformational, values-based leadership experiences for young people and the key adults in their lives, including preparation, residential delivery and follow-up. Your ideas, insight and creativity will help us continually enhance the Columban experience - from the way people are welcomed and supported, to how we listen, learn and strengthen our approach. You will be part of a warm and supportive team, united by purpose and committed to each other’s growth. You will also play an important part in helping participants, partners and colleagues feel safe, welcomed and able to take part fully. You will be a highly experienced facilitator who brings energy, presence and curiosity into every session. You communicate with warmth and clarity and enjoy building positive relationships with partners so each experience is well prepared and meaningful. Notes: A full driving licence and own car are essential. This role requires PVG scheme membership and a commitment to safeguarding young people and adults.

In partnership with FrameWorks UK, we have shared insights into how we can effectively shift public ways of thinking, countering unhelpful and stigmatising mindsets and building support for solutions. This is our next step. As a new, independent charity we aim to support the use of in-depth framing research and robustly evidenced insights combined with our experience of building relationships, providing advice, facilitating conversations and mobilising action to extend this work to other social issues impacting people’s lives.
