Manager, Itinerant Support Services

Are you a social service leader ready to turn "inclusion" from a buzzword into a reality? Do you have a passion to serve?

An established charity with a deep history and a refreshed desire for impact, The Singapore Association for the Deaf works towards a Singapore where the deaf have equitable opportunities and access to fully participate in and contribute to a robust and thriving community. Your efforts will directly contribute to Singapore being a more inclusive society. 

We are looking for a Manager, Itinerant Support Services (ISS) to lead the charge. This isn't a boring desk job; it’s a chance to mentor a multi-disciplinary team to directly impact the lives of school students with hearing loss, bridge the gap between families, schools and the community so that they can integrate better into society. 

The Role: Impact in Action

As our Manager, you’ll wear a few hats—part strategist, part mentor, and part advocate.  

1. Lead & Inspire: Manage a diverse team (Speech Language Therapist, Case Manager, Learning Support Educators and Programme Coordinator). You’ll oversee daily operations, guide programme outcomes, and keep our mission on track.  

2. Driving Empowerment: We empower families with the appropriate skills and knowledge to nurture their children so that they’ll gain confidence, independence and better integration into society. Your mission? To increase public awareness and acceptance of their capabilities and their potential. Your influence extends beyond the classroom into the community through outreach programmes and holiday activities.

3. Case management and counselling: Stay connected to the ground. About 20-30% of your role involves direct case management and counselling, ensuring you never lose sight of the students that we serve.

4. Excellence & Ethics: Maintain the quality standards of our programmes, managing stakeholder engagement, and ensuring we hit our targets.

5. Strategic Growth Partner with our Assistant Director on budgets, data-driven proposals, and reporting that helps us scale our impact.

Who You Are

• A Proven Leader: You have at least 2 years of leadership experience and know how to get the best out of a team.
• Qualified & Grounded: You hold a Degree in Social Work or Psychology and have a solid background in case management.
• A Bridge Builder: You possess strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Bonus Points: If you have experience with or knowledge of the Deaf community, you’ll hit the ground running!

• Rewarding Work: Directly contribute to a more accessible school system for youths with hearing loss, and a more inclusive Singapore.
