Esland reviews about "manager"

A lot has been done over the past year to recruit full teams and have good managers at all the homes. Support services are good. Senior managers know the homes. Pay is the same or better than most other care organisations as far as I can see.

I am maybe bias, but I have an amazing team, who without them, my home would not be where it is today, they are not only passionate, dedicated and nurturing, they are supportive to both the young people in our care but also to each other too. My team and I have supported a number of young people with achieving their positive outcomes in a loving, warm, homely environment which we have all worked hard to create. It can of course be hard work but do this together and we work to ensure your own resilience is good so that we are in the best position to care for our young people. Our region has a great clinical lead who is passionate on achieving the outcomes and supportive in helping to reach their goals Biggest pro - the children we care for and the positive memories we create with them and for them

Great regular training opportunities Qualifications Progression in your career Opportunities Approachable managers, Better pay than most care roles What's not to love. Opportunities to move to other areas as homes spread over the UK.

Could be good at times

Some lovely people and obviously the kids

No more than 2 children in each crisis home at any one time Always 2 to 1 staffing on shift No all crisis homes have children residing there now due to staffing (many care companies wouldn’t care) 9 month training plan Best SACW rates in the country Varied and wide ranging outdoor activity training program A sanctuary for the countries most challenging children Fantastic staff teams and supportive senior managers

I've been at Esland 3 years & 9 months and can honestly say I've never been happier in a place of employment. I started out working in the homes after working as a prison officer for close to 3 years, and I really struggled to feel like I fit in or find a rhythm with the job. A few years after I started I was diagnosed with Autism and the company did struggle at first to help support me with that. Eventually though they managed to find a role that fit my needs and since then I've been able to expand my skill set and develop some great relationships throughout the organisation. Despite a rough start I have no problem with saying that Esland definitely took my feedback on board, learnt from the past and made positive changes that suited me. I now feel like I am where I should be and feel like I'm making a difference (Perhaps indirectly) to our young people, by giving the homes the tools to do what they need to do and ultimately make peoples lives easier. The team I was placed in were welcoming and kind and so easy to work with that I felt I'd been with them for years. The manager/s I worked under were incredibly supportive and understanding and have really helped me learn more, not only about my role and how the company works but have helped me in terms of my diagnosis and finding ways to manage my triggers. Esland have done very well in my books over the last year and personally don't have anything to gripe about. There have been a lot of changes over a short space of time but a lot of these i feel are for the better - for example in all my time here whilst working in the homes I'd never met a CEO or COO. Now I have met both. It's really refreshing to see exec level managers taking an interest in the front line & support staff and having actual conversations with them.

Supportive and approachable ethos across all departments I have the best manager I have had in a long time and I have been in this sector for twenty years A growing organisation with opportunity to grow and develop My work colleagues! We are striving to improve quality and always become better The Quality team! The amazing clinical team who also offer 1;1 support if needed to all of our employees Having worked for a previous organisation who really didnt care how staff were treated or were feeling, it is refreshing to feel valued, listened too and appreciated Good salaries and competitive rates for junior staff
