Job description
Creative Support seeks an experienced Team Leader based in Wythenshawe, Manchester to manage two neighbouring mental health services in Northenden. This full‑time, permanent, on‑site role (up to £13.81 per hour) puts you at the centre of enabling people with mental health needs and physical health problems to live full, connected lives in their local community. You will monitor and promote tenants’ health and well‑being, develop professional relationships with multi‑disciplinary teams and families, and make sure support is consistently person‑centred and outcome focused. The two services are close together (within a five‑minute walk) with good public transport links; previous experience in a supervisory or senior support role is required.
