Do you thrive under pressure, lead from the front, and have a passion for operational excellence? We’re looking for an experienced Shift Team Leader to take charge of our Out-of-Hours (OOH) team—driving high standards, solving complex challenges, and making a real impact every single shift.
This is your opportunity to play a pivotal role in ensuring essential services are delivered to some of the UK’s most vulnerable individuals, in partnership with UK Visas & Immigration (UKV&I).

What You'll Be Leading On
As a key figure in our Service Delivery Centre, you’ll manage a high-performing team of 4 OOH Coordinators, ensuring 24/7 operations continue to run smoothly and in line with contractual performance targets. You’ll guide, support, and be the go-to expert on all things related to accommodation, transport, maintenance, and reporting.
Key Responsibilities
As the Out-of-Hours Shift Team Leader, you’ll be responsible for overseeing a team of four high-performing OOH Coordinators, providing day-to-day leadership, operational support, and ensuring consistent decision-making that aligns with contractual standards. You’ll assist the Service Delivery Manager with team planning, holiday coordination, and escalations while maintaining high morale and driving continuous improvement.
You'll coordinate critical service areas including accommodation, transport, and repairs. This involves managing AIRE notifications and allocations within contractual timeframes, ensuring vulnerable service users are placed in appropriate housing, and liaising with internal and external stakeholders to keep operations moving efficiently.
Transport responsibilities include scheduling service user movements, working closely with sub-contractors to deliver a compliant and reliable service, and ensuring the customer portal is regularly monitored and updated to meet KPIs.
In terms of property and maintenance, you’ll manage repair requests from start to finish, ensuring works are correctly categorised, prioritised, and completed within deadline. You'll also ensure property certifications are accurate and in date, liaising with landlords, contractors, and housing teams to maintain legal compliance and safety.
Finally, you’ll ensure that IT systems and visual management boards are kept up to date, and produce clear, timely reports to support performance tracking and operational transparency across the Service Delivery Centre.
