Job description

About Home-Start Barnet, Brent & Harrow

At Home-Start Barnet, Brent & Harrow, we believe every child deserves the best possible start in life. We support families with young children through challenging times, helping parents build confidence, strengthen relationships and create happier, healthier home lives.

We're looking for an experienced and compassionate Family Support Lead to join our leadership team. This is an opportunity to help shape high-quality family support services, lead a dedicated team and make a lasting difference to children and families across our communities.

About the Role

As Family Support Lead, you will provide day-to-day leadership to our Family Services Team, ensuring families receive safe, effective and person-centred support.

You'll supervise a team of Family Support Coordinators, oversee referrals and case management, act as our Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL), and work directly with a small caseload of families with more complex needs.

The role is varied and hands-on, combining operational leadership with direct practice. You'll also contribute to volunteer development, deliver training and parenting programmes, build strong partnerships with local agencies and help drive continuous improvement across our services.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead, supervise and support the Family Services Team.
  • Manage referral allocation, caseload oversight and service quality.
  • Act as the organisation's Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL).
  • Provide direct support to a small number of families experiencing complex challenges.
  • Deliver parenting programmes, workshops and community activities.
  • Work collaboratively with statutory and voluntary sector partners.
  • Contribute to the ongoing development and improvement of family support services.

About You

We're looking for someone who combines strong leadership with warmth, empathy and excellent professional judgement.

You'll have:

  • Significant experience supporting vulnerable children and families within family support, early help, social care or a related setting.
  • Experience supervising staff, volunteers or students.
  • Excellent safeguarding knowledge, with experience as a Designated Safeguarding Lead (or Deputy DSL) desirable.
  • Experience managing complex caseloads and undertaking family assessments.
  • Strong partnership working skills and confidence working with a range of professionals.
  • Experience delivering group work, workshops or training.
  • Excellent organisational, communication and decision-making skills.
  • A commitment to equality, inclusion and trauma-informed practice.

Why Join Us?

This is an exciting time to join Home-Start Barnet, Brent & Harrow. You'll become part of a supportive, ambitious organisation that genuinely values its people and the families we work alongside.

We offer:

  • A friendly and supportive team culture.
  • Opportunities for professional development and training.
  • Regular supervision and reflective practice.
  • Flexible working where operationally possible.
  • Employer pension contribution.
  • The opportunity to make a real difference to local families every day.
