Are you an experienced social care professional with a strong sense of purpose and the confidence to lead? At CrossReach, we’re looking for a Deputy Manager to support the delivery of high-quality care across our residential, respite, and day services for older people.

This is an opportunity to step into a leadership role where your values, insight and experience will directly shape the lives of those we support and the team you work with.

The role
As Deputy Manager, you’ll work closely with the Service Manager to oversee the day-to-day running of the service. You’ll ensure high standards are maintained, support the professional development of the team, and take a lead on matters such as staff supervision, rota planning, medication management, and health and safety.

You’ll also play an active part in shaping the future of the service contributing to strategic planning, quality improvement and local service development. When needed, you’ll deputise fully for the Service Manager, providing confident leadership and continuity.

What we’re looking for
We’re looking for someone with hands-on experience in social care, who brings both professionalism and compassion to their work. You’ll already hold an SVQ Level 3 in Social Services (or equivalent) and ideally be working towards or have completed SVQ Level 4 or a relevant management qualification. A sound understanding of SSSC Codes of Practice and care standards is essential, as is the ability to lead a team with clarity, warmth, and a sense of shared purpose.

You must be confident using IT for communication and record-keeping, and capable of managing staff rotas, budgets and operational records with accuracy. As this role is based in a Christian organisation, applicants should be able to work within and uphold our Christian ethos. PVG membership and SSSC registration are required.
