Community support jobs

Are you ready to take the next step into a senior leadership role and shape the future of dementia services across West Sussex?

We are looking for a Local Services Manager to join our team on a permanent, part-time basis, working 21 hours per week. 
 
As this is a community-based role, regular travel across West Sussex will be required. You will be expected to spend one day a week, Tuesday, working from our Horsham Office, to support and manage our volunteers based there.

This is a high-impact leadership opportunity to lead the delivery and ongoing development of our dementia support services across a diverse and largely rural county.

You will play a critical role in ensuring people affected by dementia receive high-quality, accessible and person-centred support, while working within a well-established, innovative, grant-funded contract.

This is a homebased role with regular travel across West Sussex. You’ll be expected to attend the Horsham office at least once a week and maintain a strong local presence through partnership engagement and team support. Due to the geography of the area, access to a vehicle is essential and mileage claims will be paid from the West Sussex border.
Whilst the role is based within West Sussex, there will be opportunities to work collaboratively across the wider Sussex area, supporting regional service development and working alongside colleagues to strengthen provision to benefit people affected by dementia.
You will work closely with fellow Local Services Managers and contribute to the South East Regional Management Team, giving you exposure to wider strategic leadership and development opportunities.

This role is particularly suited to candidates who are ready to step into leadership, build on their experience, and broaden their impact.

About you

You will have:

- Experience in managing or supporting service delivery, ideally within health, social care or community settings or transferable experience from related sectors.
 
- Experience in leading geographically dispersed, community-based teams and managing contracts, with a focus on quality and safe delivery of a high performing service.
 
- You will be confident using IT systems and managing and reviewing information through computerised recording systems. You will also be able to confidently navigate relationships through virtual means, including Teams.
 
- Passionate about continually improving services for people affected by dementia and informed by their experiences. You will be committed to our values, and have a focus on meeting the needs of the diverse communities of West Sussex, driving forward equity and accessibility in our service.
 
- Comfortable working independently and collaboratively across a dispersed team.
 
- Have organisational and relationship-building skills, with the ability to engage stakeholders and monitor performance.

- Be able to travel regularly across West Sussex and maintain a strong local presence

Please don’t be put off from applying if you don’t meet every single requirement listed. We recognise the value of transferable skills and lived experience, and we’re keen to hear from candidates who can demonstrate potential, capability and a willingness to learn.

Key Responsibilities:

- Providing strategic leadership of contract delivery, ensuring performance, quality, and compliance
- Lead, support, and develop a team of Dementia Advisers and volunteers, creating a high-performing, engaged, and inclusive team culture
- Provide coaching, guidance, and performance management to enable individuals and the wider team to succeed.
- Collaborating with fellow Local Services Managers to provide cohesive leadership across the region to ensure seamless delivery. You will also be part of the South East Regional Management Team, with occasional face to face meetings outside of the immediate area.
- You will share responsibility for quality monitoring, performance and team culture of the West Sussex team.
- Building relationships with local authorities, the health board, and pathway partners, including presenting to diverse audiences and advocating for people with dementia and the service. This may also include occasional requests for media interviews.

At Alzheimer's Society, we're the UK's leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we're working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.  

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society. 

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people.

We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.

Change lives in a life-changing career

When a child or young person is diagnosed with cancer, their whole world can feel like it’s falling apart. Independence is taken and confidence is stolen. Stability no longer exists. The future suddenly feels uncertain.

The impact of cancer on young lives is more than medical. And that impact can be felt by entire family. That’s why we exist. Our specialist social workers help children and young people with cancer and their families navigate the emotional and practical impact of cancer.

We remove barriers, solve problems and prioritise wellbeing. And we stop at nothing to make their voices heard and their unique needs understood, so they can get the right care and support at the right time

About the role

We are looking for an experienced Social Worker to join our Birmingham Team supporting children and young people diagnosed with cancer.

We pride ourselves on delivering the highest quality support tailored to the needs of the children and young people and their families. The work we do is rewarding but also complex and demanding. You will be part of a close-knit Young Lives vs Cancer social work team, working with established NHS multi-disciplinary teams and services in the community.

This role is hybrid working requiring two to three days per week to be hospital based. Your contractual base will be both Home and Hospital.

This role is subject to a criminal record check. In the event of a successful application an enhanced criminal record check will be completed. A previous conviction is not necessarily a barrier to employment. We encourage qualified applicants to apply, and we will consider each case individually.

 This role is also subject to a Social Worker Registration.

What will I be doing?

No two days are the same at Young Lives vs Cancer. So, summarising your ‘day to day’ isn’t easy. Here are some of the main things you’ll be doing, but you’ll find more details in the job description.
 

• You will be committed to changemaking and delivering high-quality social work support to promote the best outcomes for the children, young people and families we work with.
• You will assess needs and develop an action plan, you will need to be curious, creative, resourceful, courageous and resilient.
• You will have a positive attitude and be willing to embrace difference.
• You will need a willingness to work collaboratively with the wider Young Lives vs Cancer team; you will actively engage with the work of the charity and welcome opportunities to get involved.

What do I need?

Diverse perspectives and unique skillsets are at the heart of Young Lives vs Cancer. If you're passionate about making a positive impact and eager to learn, we encourage you to apply, even if you don't meet the criteria and person specification fully. Your potential is what matters most to us, and we’re committed to fostering an inclusive and supportive work environment to help you develop.

The key skills we’re looking for in this role are:

• A recognised Social Worker qualification and current registration with Social Work England/ Scottish Social Services Council/Social Care Wales/Northern Ireland Social Care Council
• Experience working with children, young people and their families/carers in a social care setting.
• Experience of working in a multi-disciplinary environment, ideally in an NHS setting.
• Sound knowledge of child and young people development.
• An understanding of the impact of serious illness for children, young people and their families.
• Excellent interpersonal skills.

What will I gain?

 For people to reach their full potential, they need the right environment. As a member of Team Young Lives, you’ll be made to feel supported, valued and appreciated. Here’s how we do it:

• Wellbeing, Thinking & Growth Days: four days a year to step back from the day-to-day and focus on your own learning and development
• Generous annual leave allowance
• Great family/caring leave entitlements
• Enhanced pension
• Access to our employee savings scheme

Our commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging

At Young Lives vs Cancer, we recognise that opportunities for too many people remain a condition of their sex, ethnicity, class, gender identity, disability, sexual orientation – or a combination. This has never been acceptable to us as an organisation. We don’t just accept difference, we value it, celebrate it, nurture it and we thrive because of it.

We’re on a journey to be reflective of the diverse children, young people and families we support. We know we aren’t there yet, and we’re passionately committed to taking actions and making changes to be a truly diverse, inclusive and equitable organisation. This includes taking anti-oppressive action and removing barriers in our recruitment practices. We particularly welcome applications from members of minoritised communities. Our Diversity, Inclusion, Equity and Belonging strategy will tell you more.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value AI adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to tell us about your skills and experiences in your own voice.

Accessibility
