As a trusted member of our senior leadership team you will be driving impact for the more than 4,000 people we work with each year by:

• developing and implementing service strategies and plans
• acting as the designated safeguarding lead
• driving equity, diversity, and inclusion internally, and in the way we deliver our work
• collaborating on service evaluation, measurement and reporting
• liaising with funders and supporting fundraising efforts
• representing CAAS externally

The role will be based in our office in Eastcote for 3 days per week, with the possibility for home working for the remainder of the time.

Salary £50k FTE.  Note the salary listed is a full time equivalent salary based on 35hrs per week, so actual salary will vary depending on hours agreed.

Hours: Part time 28hours per week. Potential for full time if additional facilitation or training work is taken on.

Terms: Permanent role

Additional project work may be available on an ad-hoc basis. Flexible hours, evening and weekend work may be required, and the work pattern may vary each week.

Job Summary

CAAS provide an ADHD and Autism Support Service for the 8 boroughs of NW London, from our base in Eastcote, with a team of Support Workers. Our work includes offering information, advice, and support to ADHD / autistic people, their families, and professionals in NW London, with the aim of improving quality of life and developing neurodiverse-aware communities. Some of the support is offered through one2one meetings, some of the support is provided through groups and courses which aim to increase understanding and awareness, and provide opportunities for peer support, and some of the support is offered through training and workshops to educate professionals and drive for accommodations to be made to services to allow greater access for our client group.

As Director of Services, you will work closely with the CEO, leading on the management of the Adult Services, Youth Services and Family Services workstreams within the charity, ensuring the high quality service provision for which we are known.
