If you're the kind of leader who doesn't just meet standards but sets them, who sees compliance as the baseline, not the finish line, then this is your home! Location: Macclesfield Salary: £45k-55k DOE We're seeking a Registered Manager to lead a well-led, Good/Outstanding-rated service where excellence is the norm. This isn't just about maintaining standards, it's about elevating them. You'll take the reins of a service with strong foundations, a dedicated team, and a culture that puts compassion, dignity, and innovation at its heart. Your Impact: Lead a service that's already thriving: Inherit a team that's motivated, systems that work, and a community that values your expertise, then make it even better. Be the standard-bearer: Use your CQC expertise to not just pass inspections, but define what outstanding looks like for residents with dementia and complex needs. Mentor, not micromanage: Nurture a team that's proud of their work through hands-on leadership, progressive training, and a culture where staff stay. Balance heart and strategy: Seamlessly blend person-centred care with commercial acumen, managing budgets, occupancy, and partnerships without ever losing sight of why you do this work. Your Experience: NVQ Level 4/5 in Health & Social Care proven success as a Care Home Manager (CQC compliance, staff development, and dementia care). A leader, not just a manager: You inspire teams because you roll up your sleeves, know residents by name, and treat standards as a starting point. A problem-solver: You spot gaps before they're gaps, whether in care plans, staff morale, or regulatory readiness. UK driving license (non-negotiable). Why This Role Stands Out: A service that's ready for you: No firefighting, just continuous improvement in a stable, well-resourced environment. Autonomy with backup: Shape the home's future with the support of a hands-on CEO and values-driven organisation. Legacy matters here: You'll work alongside a religious community that brings depth, stability, and a shared commitment to dignity.
