About The Role

In your role as a Unit Manager at HC-One, you’ll value one thing above all: kindness. It carries across every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our residents are people just like them, with their own stories to tell. By joining us, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

Being a Unit Manager means taking responsibility for a specific part of the home and delivering the very best level of care. You will also run the entire home when the Home Manager and Deputy Home Manager are absent. Whether you’re reporting mobility issues, requesting a sample for monitoring, or administering medication, you’ll always prioritize resident dignity and well-being.

We are passionate about ensuring that our current and future colleagues can be their true selves, and that our workforce reflects the communities we serve. We prioritize inclusive working practices and welcome applicants from all backgrounds into our HC-One family.

We want you to have an amazing experience working at HC-One, starting with our commitment to providing the quickest possible turnaround from job offer to your first day.

About You

You will have proven leadership skills in a care home for vulnerable adults. Beyond that, it’s your positive energy and ability to connect with people that matter. This role requires accountability, and you’ll be considerate and kind in all your interactions with residents and colleagues.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility. You should be able to recognize signs of abuse, harm, or neglect, and know how to respond. All colleagues must attend safeguarding training relevant to their role and undertake additional training as needed. You should also be able to seek advice and escalate concerns appropriately.
