  ABOUT THE ROLE

Elliot Leigh Supported Living provides semi-independent supported accommodation across East and North-East London for young adults aged 18–25 who are leaving the care system. Our residents are at a pivotal moment in their lives — transitioning from care into adulthood — and they need more than just a roof over their heads.

As a Support Worker you will hold a caseload of around 10–12 residents, walking alongside each of them through that transition: managing a tenancy, navigating employment, handling money, and knowing that someone is in their corner. You will work from our East London office and visit residents in their homes, all within a manageable travel radius — this is a Monday-to-Friday daytime role, not a shift or rota post.

This is not a passive role. It demands energy, creativity and a genuine commitment to working in partnership with young adults who have often experienced significant trauma, instability and disappointment. But it also offers something rare: the chance to be the person who helps someone turn their life around.

  PAY, HOURS AND BENEFITS

✓  £32,000 salary for candidates with 12 months’ relevant experience and a Level 3 qualification. Have the experience but not the Level 3? Start on £27,000, we fund the qualification, and you move to £32,000 on completion.

✓  Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm — flexible start and finish times will be considered; no evenings, weekends or bank holidays

✓  25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays, rising to 30 days in line with length of service

✓  4% employer pension contribution

✓  Enhanced DBS and Update Service subscription funded by us *subject to qualifying criteria

✓  Funded Level 3 Diploma in Health & Social Care or Housing, with paid study time, if you don’t already hold one

✓  A clear career ladder: Support Worker → Senior Support Worker → Team Leader, with published pay points

✓  Employee Assistance Programme with 24/7 confidential support

✓  Monthly supervision and reflective practice sessions, plus a structured four-week induction

✓  A small, inclusive team where your voice shapes how we work

✓  A company dedicated to the continuous professional development of its team members

  WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Support residents to develop and sustain independent living skills — budgeting, cooking, cleaning, tenancy management

• Deliver structured keywork sessions and co-produce individual support plans with each resident

• Help residents into education, employment and training — CV writing, job applications, college enrolment

• Keep accurate, timely records on our digital case management system — keywork notes, risk assessments, support plans

• Liaise with local authority leaving care teams, social workers, personal advisers and other professionals

• Support residents to manage their mental health, wellbeing and personal challenges in a trauma-informed way

• Accompany residents to appointments with external agencies — GP, Job Centre, local authority

• Respond calmly and professionally to conflict, emotional distress or challenging behaviour

• Work with the wider team to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all residents

• Contribute to team meetings, supervision and your own continuing professional development

  WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Essential:

• At least 12 months’ relevant experience supporting young people or young adults in a care, supported housing, youth work or semi-independent living setting

• A genuine understanding of the challenges care leavers face in the move to independent living

• Working knowledge of safeguarding and trauma-informed practice

• Strong written and verbal communication — you will produce keywork records, risk assessments and support plans to a professional standard

• Confident IT skills and the ability to use a digital case management system

• Enhanced DBS (Adults Workforce) on the Update Service, or willingness to apply; current safeguarding certificate, or willingness to complete on appointment

• Right to work in the UK

For the £32,000 rate:

• Level 3 (or above) in Health & Social Care, Housing or a related discipline, alongside the 12 months’ experience above

Desirable:

• Experience supporting young adults into education, employment or training

• Knowledge of the Children (Leaving Care) Act 2000, Care Act 2014 and Pathway Planning

• Experience with complex needs, mental health or substance use

Not quite one year’s experience yet? Ask about our Trainee Support Worker route: a 12–18 month funded Level 3 apprenticeship on £27,000, with a guaranteed move to the Support Worker scale on completion.

  WHAT MAKES A GREAT ELSL SUPPORT WORKER

• Treats every young adult as a capable individual — not a case to be managed

• Understands that independence is built gradually, and shows up with patience and consistency

• Holds clear professional boundaries while staying warm and approachable

• Is solution-focused and creative enough to find a new way in when the obvious route isn’t working

• Is a confident advocate for residents with external agencies and professionals

• Takes ownership of their own development and reflective practice

An exciting opportunity!

This is a rare and genuinely exciting opportunity to lead the UK's only dedicated charity supporting children, adults and families affected by MPS, Fabry disease and related lysosomal storage disorders. Following the current Chief Executive's planned move to become Managing Director of Rare Disease Research Partners (RDRP) in January 2027, the incoming CEO will take the helm of an organisation with over forty years of history, a trusted national reputation and a growing role on the international rare disease stage. The successful candidate will shape the strategic vision for more than 1,800 families, oversee the close partnership between the Society and its research subsidiary RDRP, and champion the patient and family ethos that sits at the heart of the organisation's work. It is an opportunity to combine ambitious strategic leadership with deeply meaningful, human impact, working alongside a committed Board, Senior Leadership Team and wider community of clinicians, researchers and pharmaceutical partners.

As our next Chief Executive, you will

• Define and deliver the MPS Society’s strategic vision.
• Provide confident oversight of governance, finance, compliance and reporting.
• Effectively manage the operational alignment between the MPS Society and RDRP.
• Always keep the members and family voice at the heart of strategy, service design and decision-making.
• Build and maintain senior-level relationships with statutory bodies, government agencies, pharmaceutical partners, clinical expert centres and other key stakeholders to support the Society’s objectives, influence policy and practice, and protect its professional reputation.
• Act as a visible and credible public voice to raise awareness, improve visibility, support, treatment access and outcomes for people affected by MPS, Fabry disease and related conditions.
• Collaborate with other rare disease bodies, patient organisations and other key audiences.
• Lead and empower the senior leadership team through effective delegation, early involvement in strategic discussions, clear accountability and support for individuals to flourish.
• Encourage an open, supportive work environment allowing creativity and building staff confidence.
• Help shape the future of the MPS Society.

About you

•  Self-motivated, with the drive to lead the organisation through a period of change and transition.
• Unquestionable probity and personal integrity, given the trust placed in the CEO by families, trustees and partners.
• Exemplary written and verbal communication skills, able to convey complex scientific and clinical information to audiences ranging from clinicians to families with no prior knowledge of MPS disorders.
• Strong self-awareness, with insight into their own leadership style and impact on others.
• Emotional resilience, able to sustain performance while supporting a community facing life limiting conditions.
• A collaborative and empowering leadership style, able to build trust, delegate effectively and help individuals across the organisation flourish.
• Genuine passion for the Society's mission, with a family and member-first ethos.
• Confidence to build relationships across a wide range of stakeholders, from beneficiaries and Trustees to politicians, media and pharmaceutical partners.
• A proactive, positive approach, comfortable reacting to change and organising their own work to meet deadlines.
• Confidence speaking publicly on behalf of the organisation and the people it represents.

Why join us?

A close-knit, values-led culture. With just over thirty staff across the Society and RDRP combined, this is a place where the CEO can know the team personally, work closely with families day-to-day, and see the direct results of decisions rather than managing at a distance through layers of bureaucracy.

• Genuine autonomy to shape direction. The Board is explicitly looking to the new CEO to bring fresh thinking on technology, AI, and digital tools, and to give real freedom to modernise fundraising, services, and engagement rather than simply maintaining what already exists.
• A stable foundation to build from over forty years of track record, trusted relationships and a strong national reputation mean the incoming CEO can focus energy on vision and growth rather than firefighting or rebuilding credibility from scratch.
• Proximity to cutting-edge science: the Society's close relationship with RDRP gives the CEO regular exposure to advances in rare disease research and treatment access, while day-to-day research leadership sits with the RDRP Managing Director, allowing the CEO to focus on strategy, people and sustainability.
• A high-visibility, high-influence platform. Regular contact with government, pharmaceutical companies, clinicians and international rare disease bodies offers strong opportunities to build a public profile and personal network well beyond the charity sector.
• A team that already shares the mission. Staff are described as passionate about the Society's aims, and as having a family-first ethos, so the new CEO inherits a culture to lead and empower rather than one that needs to be built from the ground up.
• Work with a different kind of return. Beyond salary and career progression, this role offers the less tangible reward of knowing that strategic and financial decisions translate, into better support for families facing some of the rarest conditions in the country.

Benefits

Join us and you will be working for a caring charity offering:

• A competitive salary
• Generous annual leave
• Extra leave between Christmas and the New Year
• Contributory pension
• Life assurance (subject to the conditions of the scheme)
• Employee assistance programme offering support 24/7
