ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you a passionate Deputy Home Manager, with an active NMC pin, motivated and driven to make a difference?

Can you combine your exceptional care skills with the commercial acumen needed to manage occupancy levels, care standards, and your team in the home?

As Deputy Home Manager, Nursing, you’ll support the Home Manager with the management of the Home. Specifically, you’ll be responsible for rota planning, employee recruitment, and both induction and mandatory training, ensuring that the clinical needs of our residents are recognised, assessed, and met where possible. You’ll also monitor and manage individual employee performance to ensure standards are upheld, addressing any issues as they arise through the appropriate channels.

In return, we’ll provide opportunities for career development and training to support your personal growth, all delivered in a nurturing, engaging, and rewarding environment.

Meadowcroft is located in a quiet, residential street on Queens Road just a short distance from Thame town centre. The home offers compassionate, high-quality residential, dementia, and nursing care for up to 71 residents in homely and comfortable surroundings.

You’ll have previous management experience in a multi-disciplinary care setting with a willingness to roll your sleeves up and work as a proactive team member, together with some marketing and finance experience to help grow occupancy and manage costs. Alongside this, you’ll have excellent communication skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively and will be committed to promoting and developing the highest standards of care.

Not-for-profit means that we reinvest every penny we make into our residents, colleagues, and the care homes we live and work in. Therefore, we offer a great range of benefits, including a competitive salary, training, and development.
