Day Opportunities Manager

Are you ready to lead in a way that truly puts people first?

At Windward Day Services CIC, we don’t just provide support to adults with a learning disability and autistic people — we work alongside the people who use our services, creating opportunities, building confidence and shaping meaningful days together. With 25 years of experience behind us, our founding service is looking for a passionate and values-driven Manager to lead our Windward Day Service in Netley Marsh and help drive this vision forward.

Why Join Us?

Work with, not for people – be part of a genuinely co-produced, person-centred approach

Weekdays only – No long evening or weekend shifts — any extras are usually just for fun activities/events!

Daytime hours – supporting a healthy work-life balance

Forward-thinking organisation – innovative, creative, and always evolving

Competitive salary – recognising the leadership and impact of your role

We are looking for someone who will:

Lead and inspire a dedicated and supportive team

Shape a service where people who draw on support are active partners in decisions

Inspire quality, creativity and continuous improvement

Build a positive, inclusive culture where everyone can be themselves

Keep high standards of safe and effective practices

What We’re Looking For

Someone who is passionate about person-centred and co-produced support

Can motivate and develop teams with confidence and empathy

Brings strong leadership experience within social care or day services

Is creative, solution-focused and positive

Someone with strong administrative skills, who is organised and diligent

Why This Role Stands Out

Be part of an organisation where language, values and practice truly matter

Be genuinely supported by an experienced, supportive and welcoming management team

Have an opportunity to make your mark and lead a service that is constantly evolving and improving

Location: Netley Marsh

Hours: Mon - Fri, 37.5 hours (including 9-4pm)

Pay: £33,150 annually based on 37.5 hours a week

Closing Date: Monday 8th June
