A Day Team Leader at SuperCare provides structure, energy, and leadership in a home where children are active, energetic, and sometimes physically aggressive. You'll make sure routines are consistent, staff feel confident, and children are fully engaged.
You'll balance being hands-on with guiding your team, stepping in during incidents, and ensuring the day flows smoothly. It's a role for someone who is as comfortable running up the stairs to redirect a child as they are sitting down to review a care plan.

- At least 3 years in SEN or residential childcare.
- Level 3 Diploma in Children's Care (or equivalent).
- Confident in managing aggression and leading through challenges.
- Energetic, organised, and compassionate.
