Dual Registered Manager
Children’s Residential Care

We’re seeking an experienced Registered Manager to open and manage two new 2-bed children’s homes in Bradford, located just minutes apart. You will have full autonomy over the team, structure, and the atmosphere of the homes. This role offers support to lead independently, with trust, flexibility, and backing.
Both homes will be registered for EBD or Complex Trauma, depending on staffing and care models you help develop.

The leadership team has firsthand experience in the role.
What makes this role different:
* Two new homes, five minutes apart, both 2-bed
* You’ll lead registration processes and shape the homes from scratch
* Decide on rotas, staffing, and operations, with trust in your expertise
* Support from experienced senior leadership
* A genuine opportunity to build something meaningful
What they’re looking for:
* Previous experience as a Registered Manager with a Good or Outstanding Ofsted rating
* In-depth knowledge of Children’s Homes Regulations and Quality Standards
* Experience working with children with EBD or complex trauma, ensuring safety and consistency
* Flexible, solutions-oriented, and confident in team leadership
* Level 5 in Leadership & Management (Residential Childcare) or nearing completion (75%)
What’s on offer:
* Salary up to £70,000
* Full autonomy with support from a director experienced in the field
* Influence over how the homes operate
* Opportunities for growth and shaping the wider care model
* A child-centred culture prioritising meaningful care
If you’re ready for a new challenge and passionate about working with children, this is a unique opportunity to create something special with a supportive team.
