The service is structured around a single-customer model, meaning the home is tailored to one individual, ensuring highly personalised care and support. Staff are trained in Positive Behavioural Support (PBS) and Autism-specific approaches to ensure the customer's emotional and physical wellbeing is prioritised at all times. As Deputy Manager, you'll support the Area Service Manager in overseeing service delivery, safeguarding, and staff supervision.

At Look Ahead, co-production is central to our approach. We are committed to collaborating closely with our customers to shape the support they receive. We invited B to develop a job advertisement for their new deputy service manager, and this is what they shared:
"Hi, I'm B, I'm a 56 years old woman, I have a learning disability and autism, and I live in my own house in Hertfordshire.
I'm looking for caring and passionate individual to support me with my daily living skills but also to help me develop skills to live more independently, to share my hobbies and interests and to explore new ones.
I need support to adapt to new environments and to develop trust in my carers, also support to make safe use of my home.
I love the sun and warm weather. I benefit from a Positive Behaviour Support approach as I may hurt myself or others when I'm upset, and I can damage my property.
I am looking for someone who can support me and my support team in doing the things I most enjoy.
If you would like the opportunity to support me, please apply!"
