About this role
As a Field Care Supervisor, you will bridge the gap between office administration and hands-on care delivery across Brighton & Hove.

You will play a vital role in identifying training needs, addressing safeguarding concerns swiftly, and maintaining rigorous compliance and care documentation. In addition to regular weekday hours, this role involves occasional early starts, late finishes, alternate holiday support, and participation in the management on-call rota (approximately once every 5β6 weeks). This position offers a rewarding pathway into senior leadership, preparing you for future Deputy Care Manager or Care Manager roles.
