ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you a passionate Deputy Home Manager, 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, 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 needs of our residents are recognised, assessed and met where possible.

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.

The Trust is a great place to work; we’ve been providing care for almost 1,000 years and we’re currently the second largest not-for-profit provider in the UK.
