• Liaise with clients, families, and professionals to maintain continuity and trust


• Participate in on\-call duties (evenings/weekends on rotation)


• Opportunity to move to full\-time: spend half your time in the field doing spot checks, reviews \& client assessments

• Proven background in rota optimisation, absence management, and team support


• Confident working with Care Team Leads and frontline carers
