Deputy Manager jobs in United States

Care Home Deputy Manager
Leicester | £30,000 - £35,000

Deputy Manager can be the hardest job in a care home.

It can, because it takes commitment.You need to be available.You have to cover.People under you escalate up, people above delegate down.

So it can be overwhelming.

“Can”.

Not here.Here, you get help.

There's a support system in place.At HQ, there's people who'll help with the paperwork.The admin.The breakdowns.

That leaves you free to do what you do best: Take care of your residents and your staff.

Which is probably the reason you started care work in the first place.

Why work here?
The owners are businesspeople with a dozen care homes in Leicestershire.They're entrepreneurial and aspirational, but still philanthropic.They've won an Investors in People award, proving they treat their staff right.

So you get the benefits of growth - this is one of 5 newly acquired homes, with 2 more coming this year - without the cutthroat business nature - the residents are mostly local authority-led rather than private.

You can grow with them.There's a major onus on upskilling.They'll help you with qualifications and on-the-job learning.Promotions are on the cards - previous deputies we've placed are managing their own care homes now.

And you get looked after.There's 5.6 weeks' annual leave and a 3% contributory Nest pension.

What you'll do
You'll care for elderly residents (30+ beds) and oversee your care team.

With the growth comes change, so you'll need to manage that.But it brings improved facilities and processes.

You'll also be part of the community.You'll get out there, locally, and make a name for yourself.Care, and be cared for in return.

About you

You might be:

• A deputy manager at a care home who wants more support from above

Whatever your background, you'll be given a paid induction to get you up to speed.
