This is an exciting opportunity to help improve the lives of people across Northern Ireland living with the long-term effects of brain injury.

Every year, around 11,000 people are admitted to hospital in Northern Ireland with an acquired brain injury. It can happen to anyone, at any time. When it does, we’re here to help.

We’re looking to appoint a Network Support Manager to lead our services and manage our support services across Northern Ireland.

Working with and managing a small but passionate team of regional service coordinators, counsellors and volunteers, you will support the Headway branch network and manage services across the acquired brain injury networks providing high-quality rehabilitation and support services.

To meet the demands of this challenging yet rewarding role, you will need to be committed, enthusiastic, flexible, and have a passion for making a difference.

A working knowledge and understanding of brain injury would be preferable but not essential, as long as you can demonstrate a desire to learn about its complexities and consequences. However, comprehensive experience of working within disability and health and social care would be advantageous.

We are looking for confident self-starters who have previous voluntary sector experience or who have an interest in working within a health or social care environment.

If you are interested in furthering your career and improving life after brain injury, we would like to hear from you.
