If you're passionate about delivering exceptional care and leading high performing teams, this could be the perfect opportunity for you. We're excited to welcome a new Service Lead to our amazing #TeamNorthAberdeenshire on a full-time, permanent basis.
About the role
As a Service Lead, you'll play a vital role in shaping and supporting our two services; one in Longside and one in Strichen. You'll:
- Lead and inspire your teams to deliver high-quality, person-centred support
- Provide coaching, mentoring, and day to day guidance to colleagues
- Work with fellow Service Leads and Lead Practitioners to share best practise
- Take on Registered Manager responsibilities
You'll ideally have

But more importantly you'll have:
- A sound knowledge and understanding of what it takes to run effective, person-centred services
- A passion for person-centred care
- Strong leadership and communication skills
- A positive, solutions-focused mindset
- Confidence working independently and collaboratively
- Great organisation, planning and time management skills
- Flexibility to adapt to changing needs and priorities
Working pattern
This is primarily a Monday-Friday, off rota role, giving you a great work-life balance. However, flexibility is important and occasional evenings, weekends, waking nights and sleepovers may be needed to support service needs. On call duties will also form part of your rota.
