Independent Fostering Agency | Deputy Area Manager | Hybrid | Career Progression | Generous holidays 

Salary - £40,170 - £46,350 

Do you feel as though you are ready to for the next step in your career, but your current role isn’t offering you the platform to progress?

Leaders in Care are currently working with an Outstanding rated Independent Fostering Agency based in the South East, for an experienced manager / supervising social worker to join as Deputy Area Manager in their therapeutic / mainstream service.

As the deputy area manager you will be responsible for the formal supervision and management of staff in the local offices, including case supervision of clinical practitioners and guiding the local administrative staff. You'll be covering Kent, Sussex, Surrey and the saurrounding areas.

Some of the benefits include a generous annual leave of 28 days + bank holidays, you also get an extra day off on your birthday, as well as good health days (no sickness in a 6 month period – an addition day off). You will also be enrolled on a management development course, which means you can expect opportunities for career development in the first 12 months.

This is a great opportunity to go into a non-case holding role where you will manage a close-knit team of supervising social works. You will be joining an agency where the senior leadership team has risen through the ranks, with two of the directors starting out 16 and 24 years ago, so progression is very much encouraged!

For this role, you do require a social work qualification & registration to Social Work England.
