About the role:

This is a leadership role with real weight — and real impact. As the Service Manager in our Shooters Hill service, you’ll lead an accommodation service supporting young people aged 16+ as they navigate housing, independence and what comes next. You’ll set the tone, hold the standards and champion a service that is safe, ambitious and unapologetically centred on young people’s strengths.

Your days will be a mix of strategy and presence. You’ll be visible in the service, backing your team to deliver consistent, high-quality, personalised support, while keeping a firm grip on housing management, safeguarding and performance. You’ll coach, challenge and develop staff to work confidently within a trauma-informed, psychologically informed environment — ensuring support is not only responsive, but genuinely empowering.

You’ll also be the connector. Working closely with local authorities, commissioners and partner agencies, you’ll make sure referrals are right, pathways are clear and move-on starts from day one. You’ll use insight, data and lived experience feedback to keep evolving the service — because standing still isn’t an option when young people are relying on us to get this right.

If you’re driven by high standards, believe young people deserve more than box-ticking support, and want to lead a service that helps them build skills, confidence and futures on their own terms — this is your moment.

About you:

• You’re an experienced manager who knows how to lead and develop staff across accommodation-based services, often spanning multiple sites.
• You bring a strong grasp of housing management, health & safety and safeguarding — and you don’t shy away from accountability.
• You’re confident working with young people facing complex challenges, using a trauma-informed, psychologically informed and strengths-based approach.
• You build credible, productive relationships with commissioners, local authorities and partners, and know how to represent a service with confidence and clarity.
• You lead with integrity, curiosity and courage — committed to equality, inclusion and creating spaces where both young people and staff can thrive.

We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.
