Would you like to work for an award-winning charity? Are you passionate about creating amazing experiences for people with learning disabilities?
Then, we have the job for you! As a Team Leader, you will lead and manage the team to success!
Who we are:
LDN London is an award-winning charity with over 60 years’ experience of supporting people with learning disabilities to stay healthy, be safe and live well.
We have a fantastic opportunity for several experienced Team Leaders to join our respite (Short breaks) service in Kensington. The service is located near Ladbroke Grove and Latimer Road tube stations.
The short breaks service offers crisis and planned stays to adults with learning disabilities in Kensington. The Team Leaders manage our short breaks service ensuring safe, person-centred, and high-quality support for adults with learning disabilities.
About the role:
The Team Leader is responsible for offering a creative and flexible response to ever changing complex demands which include meeting guest’s needs within the environment. We require experienced Team Leaders to help run the short breaks service.
The Team Leader acts as the “person in charge” for the service during their shift — coordinating staff deployment, managing admissions and discharges, ensuring accurate recording and communication, and promoting a positive and enabling environment for guests and staff.
We require x4 Team leaders and each team leader will work a 5-day week (37.5 hours per week) with a mixture of days, evenings, nights and weekends on a rota basis. Weekends will rotate approximately working 1 to 2 weekends per month. Team Leaders will work 1 week of nights shifts approximately every 6 weeks.

The role requires you to work with people who need assistance with every aspect of daily living, supporting complex health conditions, assisting people with sensory loss and communication challenges as well as with people who are significantly more independent but vulnerable to coercion and control and who may reject support. People want to be part of the community and to develop independence skills and so understanding the principles of doing with and not for is important.
You will be part of a large team and working as partners with professionals and families and so your communication skills and level of professionalism must be at the highest level. Being a team player who can take on additional responsibilities based on a key working model is also a requirement.
About you:
The ideal candidate will be a well organised person with the ability to deliver successful outcomes for the people we support. You will be confident networker and relationship builder with excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
You must be able to demonstrate the ability to develop strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. As a self-starter, you will be able to use your own initiative, can problem solve and prioritise, with good planning and organisational skills. In addition, you will need a positive, resilient attitude, be able to work under pressure, meet deadlines and be flexible and adaptable.
Relevant training will be provided. Adherence to our values is core to our recruitment and will be tested through interviews and during probation.
We are looking for someone who has a good understanding of the needs of people with learning disabilities and can work collaboratively to achieve our goals. The ideal candidate will be able to self-motivate and work independently whilst keeping in line with LDN London’s values.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who is looking for a new challenge!
Why join us:
We offer continuing opportunities for learning and development together with regular supervisions and support for all our staff. We offer:
