We are currently recruiting for a Registered Manager to join our growing family of carers.

As a Registered Manager, they will be required to manage house budgets and team and house meetings, enabling positive communications for the benefit of all. They will be expected to assist with the development of services for residents and service users, liaising with GPs and other health professionals.

Our aim is to provide safe, effective and responsible care to our residents and service users.

We are continuing to raise funds for a new Nursing and Complex Care Unit which will home those on the island suffering from dementia. It is estimated that approximately 1600 people are living with a form of dementia in Jersey, with this figure set to double in the next 20 years. Les Amis works hard to meet the growing needs of the Learning Disability community and will be actively recruiting the best people to add to their team in order to meet the challenges they face.

Les Amis has enjoyed much recognition recently, being the only Channel Island organisation to have been shortlisted for an Investors in People Awards for 2018, honouring those with the best people management practices. We offer all our staff a highly competitive remuneration and benefits package, including sick pay and a staff pension. With a reputation for investing heavily in their staff, the local charity now employs over 200 people and are always eager to speak to those with the right attitude and approach to caring.
