Due to the opening of a new service, we have an exciting opportunity for an experienced and motivated individual who can bring with them the managerial skills to assist in the management of a complex mental health supported living scheme.

The service is aimed to support individuals who have had long stay admissions in locked door rehabilitation units, forensic units and out of area placements.
