Full job description

We’re recruiting a Person in Charge in Kilkenny for our client, a well-established provider of community-based residential and day services for adults with intellectual disabilities. Their supported self-directed living model helps people live a good life in their own homes and become active, valued members of their communities.

The role

You’ll lead a team of social care workers, nurses and care assistants, and set the standard for person-centred, rights-based support day to day. You’ll be a central point of contact for families, multi-disciplinary teams, senior management and the local community.

Key responsibilities

  • Take on Person-in-Charge functions and lead the house day to day.
  • Line-manage, supervise and develop your team, including rosters, performance achievement and induction.
  • Embed a clinically informed, low-arousal approach to behaviour support.
  • Maintain HIQA compliance, including notifiable events, quarterly returns, audits and record keeping.
  • Oversee medication management in line with policy.
  • Build strong relationships with the people you support, their families and the local community.
  • Work with management, quality and multi-disciplinary colleagues to keep improving the service.

What you’ll bring

  • Level 7 degree in Social Care or Applied Social Care, or a nursing qualification (Intellectual Disability, Psychiatric, General or Children’s).
  • A suitable management qualification.
  • CORU registration (where applicable).
  • At least 3 years of demonstrable management experience in a health or care setting.
  • Experience supporting people with intellectual disabilities, including behaviours that challenge, in a community setting.
  • Strong report-writing, communication and organisational skills.
  • Working knowledge of HIQA standards.
  • A full clean Irish driving licence and your own vehicle.

What’s on offer

  • Salary of €56,000–€70,000, depending on qualification and experience.
  • Permanent position, 39 or 37.5 hours per week.
