About us
We’re a thriving advice organisation that is part of the national Citizens Advice network. Our services are delivered by a team of around 40 paid staff and 60 volunteers. We have a typical annual turnover of £2 million and in addition to our core advice service, funded by Wandsworth Council, we have a range of projects funded by trusts, foundations and our local Integrated Care System.
While we’re proud of the number of residents we support, we know that we can’t meet demand for advice and that marginalised communities don’t always come to established organisations for support. Because of this, we place equal value on improving reach and access through creative collaboration with equity-led organisations, partnership development and capacity building.
Why we need you
We’re recruiting a Service Manager for our Financial Resilience Navigators project and Home Visiting Team. This role will sit within our Management Team and we expect the successful candidate will divide their time roughly equally between the two projects.

- Leading and supporting teams of staff and volunteers, ensuring they are equipped, trained, and motivated to deliver effective, high-quality client-centred services.
- Managing and supervising support and advice projects across multiple channels (in-person, outreach, home visiting, online, telephone), ensuring services are accessible to vulnerable client groups.
- Managing relationships with commissioners and funders, ensuring we meet our contractual obligations and can demonstrate this to our funders.
- Leading in building and maintaining positive, collaborative partnerships with statutory, voluntary, and community sector agencies and teams.
- Providing direct advice and ongoing support to clients, maintaining a caseload where appropriate, particularly in complex or high-priority situations.
This role might suit applicants wwith experience of giving advice and supervising advice services, but it also offers opportunities to develop skills and knowledge around Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning, as the Financial Resilience Navigators project is a pilot that will be externally evaluated.
Why you should join us
We’re a dynamic organisation with a culture of quality and innovation. We’re ambitious about delivering advice services that make a real difference to local people and being a great place to work and volunteer. You’ll be part of a diverse and friendly team of staff and volunteers who are passionate about helping the people who need us most. Working with us means seeing yourself and your colleagues have a positive impact on the lives of ordinary people and protecting our communities from hardship, poverty and crisis.
We also believe that investing in and listening to our teams makes us a better organisation. We involve staff and volunteers extensively in the design and delivery of our services, as well as in long-term planning. You’ll benefit from working at an organisation with a strong commitment to professional development and continuous training – we’re proud of our teams and in return offer excellent opportunities for personal development and career growth.
This role is a great opportunity for anyone who wants to develop into a management role as the majority of our managers have an advice background and have progressed up from similar roles.
Our commitment to EDI
We’re passionate about promoting equity, valuing diversity and working inclusively. We welcome applications from all suitably qualified people but particularly people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic groups and people with disabilities, as these groups are currently under-represented in our team.
We recognise that generative AI can be a useful tool when applying for a job, but what we’re interested in is your individual motivation, skills, experience and values. To make your application stand out, it’s best to avoid standard AI responses and have your statement reflect your own thoughts and experiences.

We are looking for a Family Support Manager who is passionate about making a real difference for families of children and young people with disabilities. This is an opportunity to lead a dedicated team, expand our support services, and make sure that no child or young person is left without the vital care they need due to a lack of resources or support.
You will have the chance to bring fresh ideas, develop new ways of working, and strengthen our support pathways. This role is your opportunity to make a lasting impact, not just by delivering exceptional support, but by building a service that continues to grow and improve as part of our ‘Bridging the Gap’ strategy.
This is a home-based role, and you can be based anywhere in the UK, with travel (paid for) to our Head Office in Kent at least once a month and occasionally to other areas of the UK as required.
About Tree of Hope: ‘Bridging The Gap’ in Children and Young People’s Healthcare
Tree of Hope is a UK children and young people’s healthcare charity dedicated to helping families secure the funding and support they need for their seriously ill and disabled children. Since 1992, we have been a vital source of guidance and assistance for families, empowering them to access medical treatments, therapies, and equipment that are not freely available through the NHS or social care.
In October 2024, Tree of Hope launched our new three-year strategy, ‘Bridging the Gap’, to tackle the growing challenges families face in accessing the care their disabled children need. With over 1 million children in the UK living with disabilities and 40% of families with disabled children living in poverty, the need for support has never been greater. Far too many families are falling through the cracks.
‘Bridging the Gap’ is our commitment to tackling this. Our strategy is focused on expanding our reach, improving access to funding, and building stronger community networks so that more families can secure the vital treatments and support they need sooner. We are determined to make sure that no family is left behind.
Why Join Us
At Tree of Hope, we believe that every family should have equal access to the healthcare they need. To make that happen, we have built a team that is guided by our values of Respect, Dedication, Integrity, Compassion, and Collaboration. These values shape everything we do, from how we support families to how we work together as a team.
We believe that great work should be celebrated. Through our Kudos platform, team members recognise and appreciate each other's contributions every day. Our Annual Staff Awards go even further, shining a light on everyone’s contribution over the year. We also make time to connect and reflect with regular team meetings, socials, and two Away Days each year, opportunities to share ideas, strengthen relationships, and plan for the future.
Your wellbeing matters to us. We are committed to creating a supportive and caring work environment. That is why we actively use Wellness Action Plans, an Employee Assistance Programme, and a Healthcare Plan through the Hospital Saturday Fund. We also invest in your growth, offering a training and development budget to help you thrive and develop in your role.
At Tree of Hope, you will be part of a team that genuinely cares, celebrates success, and works together to make sure that no child or young person is left without the support they need.
Whether you have experience in family support, health and social care, disability services, or a related field, we welcome applications from those committed to making a difference.
