Residential Team Leader opportunity for an accommodation service in Sydney's Inner West.
We are currently recruiting a Team Leader to join a residential service based in Sydney's Inner West. This is a hands on leadership role within a well run home environment, offering the opportunity to lead a small team while remaining actively involved in day to day support.
This position sits within a growing, purpose driven organisation that delivers Supported Independent Living services to adults with disability. The focus is on practical, person centred support that promotes independence, builds capability, and improves overall quality of life for the people accessing the service.
The opportunity

You will be responsible for guiding a small team of support workers, ensuring consistent delivery of care, and maintaining strong communication with internal stakeholders and external parties such as families and allied health professionals. The role requires someone who is comfortable balancing competing priorities while maintaining a clear focus on outcomes for both clients and staff.
What you will bring
This role would suit someone who has already stepped into informal (acting) or formal leadership and is ready to take ownership of a service.
