Deputy Manager

The Henderson & Harvard Bungalows family are recruiting!

Henderson & Harvard bungalows support adults with a variety of learning and physical disabilities to live their best lives at this beautiful residential home in Essex!

The individuals we support at Henderson & Harvard love using their own purpose-built sensory room! They love going out for the day and popping to the pub for lunch. They’re a very sociable bunch and love being with friends. They’re partial to a bit of cooking and baking, especially unicorn cakes! They frequently spend time in the garden and love playing with bubbles. They’ve also been known to attend the local 80’s and 90’s disco nights!

We love our jobs at Henderson and Harvard. We are a very bouncy, bubbly and enthusiastic team - what’s not to love!

“We have a very good core team here, we all have very good communication, there’s consistency throughout and all the individuals we support needs are met! We love it here!”

At Salutem Care and Education, we recognise the value and wisdom that come from all stages of life. Join our team to be a part of a community that truly appreciates the richness of age diversity.
