Homecare Team Leader

We are looking for a Homecare Team Leader to work alongside the Area Manager, guiding and developing a team of Care Experts while keeping the quality of care where it should be.

Bluebird Care Mid & West Cornwall is rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission. We support people to stay living well and safely in their own homes across mid and west Cornwall, and our homecare service works with customers day in, day out, in the routines and surroundings that matter most to them.

You will get a full paid induction and ongoing expert training from day one. Beyond that there is specialist training and development, including extended skills such as PEG feeding and suctioning, and support to work towards your Level 3 or Level 5 if that is where you want to go. We will back you with supervision, honest feedback and coaching, and there is a clear route into senior and management roles here for people who want it. Everything you learn with us stays with you and builds your professional record.

You are the person the team looks to day to day:

Coach, supervise and support a team of Care Experts, and give regular feedback to the Area Manager
Lead by example, setting the standard for conduct, professionalism and care
Carry out quality checks, spot checks, customer reviews and care plan updates
Support the Area Manager with compliance, safety and continuous improvement across the service
Deliver hands-on, person-centred care yourself when it is needed, including personal care
Record and report accurately, promptly and clearly, and escalate concerns through the right channels
Complete the administration that keeps the service running properly, with time in your week set aside for it
Build strong working relationships with customers, families, healthcare professionals and the wider team

Bluebird Care Mid & West Cornwall provides professional home care, live-in care, complex care, and children’s support across Cornwall. We’re passionate about helping people live independently in their own homes while creating a rewarding and supportive environment for our team. Every day, our carers make a real difference, delivering person-centred care with compassion and professionalism.
