Services Manager

Are you someone with lived or professional experience of adoption or kinship care who would like make a meaningful difference to other adoptive and kinship families’ lives? Can you build relationships and deliver services that are highly valued, trauma-responsive and impactful?

Services Manager | £37,000 FTE (0.4 FTE, £14,800 actual) | Home-based | 2 days/week

We’re looking for a Services Manager to help shape and deliver the next chapter of The Belay Foundation.

Working closely with our Services Director, you’ll use your lived or professional experience of our adoptive and kinship families to develop and deliver valued, practical and trauma-responsive support to families across England and Wales. This is key role, working directly with parents and carers, and an opportunity to really make a difference in our families’ lives.

This is a home-based role for two days per week (0.4 FTE), offering flexibility alongside the opportunity to shape a growing national charity. Our services are delivered to families online. We intend to increase the hours over time as funding allows, making this an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to grow with the organisation.

If you’re someone passionate about making a difference to adoptive and kinship families with the experience of delivering family support, we’d love to hear from you.

Please read our full Candidate Application Pack for further details about the role, our ambitions and how to apply.

Applications close at 11:59pm on Sunday 18th October 2026. We reserve the right to close applications one week early should we receive a very high number of applications.
