At Affinity Trust, people are at the heart of everything we do. We support people with learning disabilities, autism and related needs to live their lives their way. To do that well, we need strong planning, good decisions, and the confidence to use our resources in the best possible way.
About the role
The Rostering & Workforce Optimisation Manager role at Affinity Trust is a high-impact role with a clear purpose: to improve rostering quality, strengthen cover planning and reduce avoidable agency use.
You’ll work with Support Managers, Operations Managers and senior leaders to spot where things are not working as well as they should, understand why, and put practical improvement plans in place. That might mean identifying patterns in sickness and annual leave cover, highlighting gaps between commissioned and rostered hours, improving the way rosters are reviewed, or helping managers use the rostering system more consistently and meaningfully.
You’ll set clear minimum rostering standards, lead a regular governance and review rhythm for priority locations, and create repeatable insight packs that help operational leaders make better decisions. You’ll also act as the business owner for our rostering system, SONA, helping to shape priorities, improve reporting and support meaningful use across the organisation.
What success looks like
Success in this role means priority locations are meeting minimum rostering standards, managers are planning cover more effectively, last-minute changes and preventable gaps are reducing, and agency reliance is falling for the right reasons.
It also means leaders have better insight, decision-making becomes more consistent, and our rostering system is being used in a way that supports quality, continuity and good operational control.
What we’re looking for
We’re looking for someone who is analytical, practical and confident working with people at different levels of the organisation.
You will ideally bring:
- Experience of improving rostering, workforce deployment or operational performance in a multi-site environment
- Strong analytical skills, with the ability to turn data into practical action
- Confidence using systems, spreadsheets and management information
- The ability to influence, support and challenge managers constructively
- Experience of identifying root causes and delivering sustained improvement
- Experience of working across functions to solve problems and remove blockers
- A clear understanding of how staffing, cover planning and roster quality affect continuity, quality and cost.
Experience in health and social care would be particularly valuable, especially within learning disability, autism or children and young people’s services. Knowledge of SONA or similar rostering systems would also be helpful.
Why join us?
This is a chance to shape an important area of work with real visibility and real impact. You’ll help us improve consistency, reduce avoidable cost pressure, strengthen decision-making and support better outcomes for the people we support.
If you enjoy combining data, operational insight, coaching and problem-solving, and you want to help drive meaningful improvement across a large and diverse organisation, we’d love to hear from you.
Apply now to help us build stronger rostering practice, better workforce planning and more consistent support across Affinity Trust.

About BeyondAutism
Our vision
A world where every autistic learner belongs, succeeds and shapes their own future.
Our mission
To ensure every autistic child and young adult accesses the education and support they need to belong, succeed, and lead lives full of opportunity, choice and independence.
Founded by parents in 2000, we provide a continuum of support from Early Years through Post-19, alongside outreach, training, and our pioneering BeyondAutism Fast Responder service. We combine direct education for children with the most complex needs with national training, resources, and policy influence – creating a blueprint for inclusion that can be scaled across the country.
At the heart of our approach is a deep understanding of behaviour – recognising it as communication and as a reflection of environment and need. Too often, scientific principles have been misapplied in ways that prioritise compliance over the individual’s voice. We reject any practice that seeks to suppress identity; instead, we celebrate individuality and apply behaviour analysis in a positive, ethical, and person-centred way – supporting choice, independence, and outcomes that enhance quality of life.

People’s Health Trust is a national charity working with local communities across Great Britain to stop people dying too young, help them live longer, healthier lives and make health equal.
Life expectancy rose for a hundred years, but in the last decade it has gone backwards — with the steepest declines in the most disadvantaged areas. Across Great Britain, people in these neighbourhoods die up to 13 years earlier than those in the wealthiest places. These inequalities are driven by changeable factors such as poor housing, low-paid work, and limited access to good education, clean air and natural spaces. People’s Health Trust exists to end this unfairness and ensure everyone has the chance to live a long, healthy life.
Our work focuses on:
- programmes supporting people living in the most disadvantaged neighbourhoods to address the conditions that make them unwell — from poor housing and limited access to advice services, to a lack of natural space and pathways into good work.
- using data, evidence and community expertise to design solutions, not just restate problems. Our work improves health and wellbeing from cradle to retirement.
- our lived experience network – made up of over 600 grassroots leaders from across England, Scotland and Wales – works directly with us to share evidence of the impact that poor housing, low income, poor jobs and poor education have on the lives of their communities, as well as timely and cost-effective solutions.
With a strong interest in social justice, the Director of Finance will be a member of the Leadership Team responsible for ensuring the Trust’s financial viability and statutory compliance, along with providing strategic oversight of performance management and robust risk management to safeguard the Trust’s long-term sustainability.
A qualified accountant, you will be skilled in the development and implementation of financial strategies to manage, safeguard and maximise income and have direct experience of managing financial processes and controls, including preparing management accounts. You will also have direct experience of managing organisational progress against strategic objectives and direct experience of charity or corporate governance, including risk management.
We are committed to being a Disability Confident Employer. Our diversity data shows that we are currently under-represented by certain groups of people. We particularly encourage applications from people from racially minoritised communities, disabled people and people from disadvantaged neighbourhoods.
If this sounds like the role you are looking for and you feel you have the skills and experience we need, full details of the role and how to apply are at the link above.
Please get in touch if you require any additional support with your job application. This particularly applies to people who need us to make reasonable adjustments under the Equality Act 2010. This could include, but is not limited to, accepting applications in a different format, offering information or explanations in a way which helps you, or working with BSL interpreters.
The deadline for applications is Tuesday 7 April and interviews will be held in London on Friday 24 April.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
