Be the Difference: Service Manager – Bracknell
At Kids, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to play, learn, grow, and thrive—no matter their abilities, background, or circumstances. For more than 50 years, we’ve stood alongside disabled children, young people, and their families, working with them to break down barriers, create opportunities, and open doors to brighter futures.
Our services are more than just activities; they are safe, welcoming spaces where children and young people can explore who they are, build friendships, discover independence, and have fun. Families tell us that our work doesn’t just support their child—it strengthens their resilience, gives them hope, and makes life that little bit easier.
Now, we are looking for a dedicated and passionate Service Manager to join our team. This is a chance to play a central role in shaping the future of our services ensuring that every child and young person with SEND has the chance to live life to the fullest.
This is more than a management role. It’s a chance to lead with purpose, champion inclusion, and create environments where children and young people can thrive.
What you’ll do
As a Service Manager, you’ll be at the heart of our play and short break services. These include after-school clubs, weekend activities, and holiday programmes—services that not only give children a safe and joyful place to be themselves but also provide essential respite for families.
You’ll be responsible for making sure these services don’t just run smoothly but truly flourish and grow. That means:
- Leading, inspiring, and supporting a team of dedicated colleagues and volunteers—building a culture of care, respect, and ambition.
- Developing strong partnerships with local authorities, schools, healthcare professionals, and community organisations, ensuring Kids remains a trusted, collaborative voice in the region.
- Maintaining the highest standards of safeguarding, quality, and inclusion—ensuring our services meet regulatory requirements and exceed expectations.
- Listening to and amplifying the voices of children, young people, and families—shaping services around what really matters to them.
- Driving innovation and growth, spotting new opportunities for funding, development, and partnership, helping Kids remain at the forefront of SEND services.
Your role will be a balance of strategic leadership and practical delivery. You’ll have the chance to set direction and innovate, while also rolling up your sleeves to make sure services on the ground are exceptional.
What you'll bring
We’re looking for someone with both professional expertise and personal passion—a leader who can combine big-picture thinking with the ability to nurture and guide a team day-to-day.
You’ll bring:
- Experience of managing and developing services, ideally within children’s services, social care, education, or a related field.
- A proven ability to lead and motivate teams, bringing out the best in people and creating a supportive culture.
- A solid understanding of safeguarding, Ofsted requirements, and the challenges and opportunities facing disabled children and young people.
- Strong organisational and financial management skills, with the confidence to oversee budgets and resources effectively.
- A relevant Level 5 qualification in Children and Young People / Health and Social Care (or equivalent).
Experience of working directly with disabled children and young people is an advantage, but what matters most is that you share our values: inclusion, respect, collaboration, and a deep commitment to making a difference.
Why Join Kids?
We’re more than just a workplace—we’re a community. We care about your wellbeing, growth, and work-life balance. Here’s what we offer:
The Good Stuff/Benefits
- Join a company that truly cares about your wellbeing
- Enjoy an enviable annual leave package, starting at a generous 25 days and growing each year up to 30 days.
- Option to buy an additional 5 days holiday.

- Unlock exclusive discounts by taking up membership of a perks discount site
- Spread the word and reap the rewards with our enticing "Recommend a Friend" scheme.
- Access confidential support and expert guidance 24/7 through our Employee Assistance Programme, helping you navigate both personal and professional challenges.
- Take care of yourself with Company Sick Pay which you are entitled to from your first day.
- 5 days of paid family/carers leave.
- Salary sacrifice schemes available
- Develop your mentoring skills by either being a mentor or signing up for our mentoring programme.
- Expand your horizons with Kids’ online learning platforms, offering a wealth of professional courses for your personal and career development.
- Apprenticeship programmes available for employees

Ready to make an impact?
This is your chance to use your skills, passion, and leadership to transform lives. As a Service Manager at Kids, you’ll have the privilege of seeing children and young people with SEND smile, grow in confidence, and achieve things their families never thought possible.
If you’re ready to lead with heart, purpose, and vision, we would love to hear from you.

The role of CEO at Emerge is full of opportunity and potential. It is varied and at times complex, requiring a person of integrity, person centred leadership skills and responsibility.
As a Christian organisation (as stated in our registered charity objectives) we require our CEO to have a Christian faith whose theology is worked out in their day-to-day life – professionally and personally. They must be a leader of integrity and compassion for young people, team members and the communities we serve and be committed to learning and growing personally so they are well placed to enable the same for others.
The attached recruitment pack expands on this, but the below points are a summary of the most important elements of the role and the person we are looking for which the staff team and trustees have highlighted.
We are looking for someone who:
· Has significant experience of leading organisations, projects and people, and is therefore able to articulate vision, design and deliver a strategy and lead an experienced staff team.
· Has a big heart – full of compassion for young people and evidenced commitment to engage those who find themselves marginalised.
· Has an active Christian faith evidenced in clear theology, thinking and practice.
· Has established youth sector and voluntary sector experience and therefore understands deeply the challenges young people face in our communities and our city.
· Is a leader with experience of training staff and delegating effectively to enable others to grow their skills and abilities.
· Can clearly understand and work with finances – setting and controlling budgets and working diligently and creatively to ensure continued financial sustainability.
· Is confident in representing Emerge externally, networking across various sectors, maintaining and developing new partnerships, writing reports and public documents and being our champion in every context.
· Has experience of overseeing the legal requirements of running an organisation, employing staff and running an effective charity.
· Has robust knowledge of safeguarding issues as evidenced by current training and qualification (DBS etc.)
We recognise that not every candidate interested in this role will have the full breadth of experience, knowledge and skills we outline in the job description and person specification on the following pages. We are therefore interested in hearing from people who feel they meet most of the criteria and clearly share our faith, values and vision strongly enough to lead the organisation.
The majority of the role fits within a standard working day, but it will involve some evening working, and occasional weekend work recognised through an informal time in lieu process. There is some scope to work at home occasionally but youth work and leading a youth work charity mainly requires your regular presence in our offices and venues.

About role:
Step into a role where your work makes a powerful difference every single day. As a Project Worker for Complex Needs at our new Harrow Road Assessment Hub in Westminster, you'll be part of an inspiring team at the forefront of change - supporting people as they take their first steps away from rough sleeping. Westminster has some of the highest levels of rough sleeping in the UK, and this innovative service offers short-stay, intensive support for people who may not have a local connection but are in urgent need of stability, care and a chance to rebuild.

This is more than just a job - it’s a launchpad for a career in frontline services where you’ll develop a rich mix of skills, from trauma-informed support to multi-agency collaboration.

Every day, you'll help navigate real challenges - like immigration, healthcare access, or welfare systems - and you'll see the impact of your work unfold as people regain their footing and move forward.
At Single Homeless Project (SHP), we believe in growing talent from within. This role opens the door to continuous professional development and progression across our diverse services.

- Strong communication and organisational skills.
- Empathy, resilience, and a commitment to person-centred working.

Single Homeless Project is a London-wide charity. Our vision is of a society where everyone has a place to call home and the chance to live a fulfilling life.
We help single Londoners by preventing homelessness, providing support and accommodation, promoting wellbeing, enhancing opportunity, and being a voice for change. From supporting people in crisis to helping people take the final steps towards independence and employment, we make a difference to 12,000 lives every year across all 32 boroughs.
We offer you more than a job; we offer you a chance to be part of a compassionate, driven team that's committed to making a real difference in people's lives. You'll have the opportunity to lead, co-create, and inspire change while enjoying a collaborative, growth-oriented environment.
