Job description

Registered Care Home Manager – Parkland House, Exeter, our CQC rated Outstanding home

£60,000 per annum

At Parkland House, our 52 bedded home, we believe in more than just care. We believe in creating a home, where residents feel safe, valued, and loved – and where staff feel empowered, supported, and proud of the work they do.

We are looking for a Registered Care Home Manager who doesn’t just meet standards – but raises them. Someone who sees beyond the job title – a leader who knows that the best care isn’t just about compliance, but about creating moments of joy and connection every single day. Someone who believes that every resident’s story, dignity, and happiness matters.

If that sounds like you, then this isn’t just another job – this is your chance to lead something truly special.

About Us

At Peninsula Care Homes, our CARE (Committed, Ambition, Responsible, Embracing) values shape everything we do.

We are a small but expanding family-run business dedicated to providing high-quality care and support. Our values-driven approach places people at the heart of everything we do – from our residents to our dedicated staff.

Why Parkland House?

• Part of a family run care home business – We’re not part of a corporate chain. We care deeply about our residents, our staff, and our home.
• Our largest home – An even bigger chance to make an impact!
• A close knit team – Our staff don’t just “do a job” – they change lives.
• A role with purpose – Your leadership will shape the future of our home and the lives of those in it.

What we’re looking for:

• A strong, compassionate leader who can inspire and develop a team.
• An experienced care home manager
• A deep understanding of CQC standards and compliance, but with the heart to go beyond box-ticking.
• A people-first approach – because the best care happens when staff feel supported, happy, and valued.
• A visionary, to maintain our Outstanding status, and to take Parkland House to new heights.
• An NVQ Level 4/Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care, or working towards it
• Good communication and organisation skills
• IT Skills including the use of Microsoft Office
• A leader who truly lives and breathes our CARE values.

What’s in it for you?

• Competitive salary
• Ongoing professional development – We’ll invest in you, just like you’ll invest in our home.
• A chance to lead somewhere that actually feels like home
• Autonomy to shape the home going forward
• You will be part of an inclusive and collaborative team that, no matter what the challenge may be, are ready to face it head on and are committed to seeing it through.
• Support from a central office team
• Support with financial budgeting within your home
• Access to Peninsula Care Homes Mental Health First Aider and an external confidential staff helpline.
• Death in Service cover (After completion of probation subject to meeting set criteria)

If you’re ready to take on a role where your leadership will truly matter, we’d love to hear from you.
