At Peabody, we’re here for people who need a bit of extra help to live well and independently. Our supported housing services offer not just a place to live, but a platform to thrive — especially for people who’ve been pushed to the margins due to mental health issues, homelessness, or complex needs.

We’re looking for a values-driven and compassionate Team Manager to lead three supported housing services in Hackney. You’ll guide and support a team of dedicated support workers, making sure they have the tools, confidence, and backing to do their very best work.

You’ll be great at this job if:

• You believe in people and their potential — even when life’s been tough
• You’ve led teams in supported housing or similar settings, especially around mental health
• You understand what good, safe, recovery-focused support looks like — and how to deliver it through others
• You know how to balance kindness with boundaries, and compassion with accountability
• You’re confident working with risk, safeguarding, budgets and KPIs — but always keep the human side in mind

You’ll get to be part of a values-based organisation that’s genuinely committed to inclusion, learning and working together to do the right thing.

We’re kind. We pull together. We keep our promises. We celebrate diversity. We love new ideas. And we always aim to do the right thing, especially when it’s hard.

2. About Save the Rhino International – leading the charge!

At Save the Rhino International, we believe rhinos are magnificent, in themselves and as champions of the incredible wild landscapes in which they live. And they are endangered. To thrive, both rhinos and people need a world that is healthy, diverse and resilient.

We connect people striving to conserve rhinos and their habitats with people who want to support that vital work, and we contribute our own knowledge and skills to the conservation effort. Every day we work with a wonderful community of passionate friends, partners and supporters, to ensure that all five species of rhinos thrive in the wild.

Our core values, on which we will never compromise, are Integrity, Collaboration and Determination. We express those values through how we behave and talk to the world – who we are: Friendly, Knowledgeable and Passionate.

Save the Rhino International was established as a UK-registered charity in 1994. In the financial year ending 31 March 2025, we raised c. £3.4 million in support of our conservation partners in Africa and Asia.

In the financial year 2024-25, c. £2.6m in grants were made in response to donor-funded proposals that were drafted by the grants team. Producing good proposals and credible budgets depends on close liaison with Save the Rhino’s partners in the field to understand the issues that need to be addressed and the proposed approaches to tackle them.

In addition, the Grants Officer will also participate in internal and external discussions about project design, monitoring and evaluating impact, and help provide content for Save the Rhino’s website, print, and social media.

Save the Rhino International is a small and friendly organisation with big ambitions. Every day, we strive to achieve our vision of all five rhino species thriving in the wild.
