• Develop future leaders: Support the induction, supervision, appraisals and ongoing development of Area Care Managers, creating a positive culture of accountability, teamwork and continuous improvement.
• Maintain strong operational standards: Oversee staffing, rotas, annual leave and working time compliance, ensuring resources are managed effectively and fairly.
