Registered Manager – CQC Domiciliary Care
Location: Tunbridge Wells area, Kent / East Sussex Border
Contract: Full-time | Permanent | Office-Based
Are you an experienced care leader ready to step into full operational control of a high-performing domiciliary care service?
We’re recruiting on behalf of a trusted provider to appoint a Registered Manager for their Tunbridge Wells area-based service, delivering personal care to adults living independently in their own homes. If you’re passionate about care quality, confident with audits and compliance, and commercially aware — this is a role with purpose, progression, and autonomy.
About the Service
The branch delivers regulated domiciliary care across the Tunbridge Wells & surrounding areas, supporting older adults and vulnerable individuals with day-to-day care needs. You’ll be leading:
* A dispersed team of care workers
* A coordination and compliance support team
* Delivery of high-quality care packages commissioned by local authorities
As Registered Manager, you’ll be accountable for care quality, team performance, CQC compliance, and service growth — with support from a wider regional and national leadership team.
What We’re Looking For
We’re seeking a proactive, knowledgeable manager who:
* Has Registered Manager (or senior deputy) experience in a regulated care setting
* Holds a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health & Social Care
* Understands the challenges of leading a community-based care service
* Has experience managing rotas, audits, safeguarding, and commissioner relationships
* Is confident leading a team while growing a service
* Lives within a realistic commuting distance of Tunbridge Wells
Why This Role Stands Out
CQC-registered leadership — legal accountability and local autonomy
Established service — steady care delivery with room for further growth
Regional and national support — HR, QA, Finance teams in place
Clear growth pathway — expectation to grow service by 10% annually
Excellent benefits — 25 days holiday, enhanced family leave, sick pay & more
Development and progression — access to training, coaching, and promotions
You’ll be joining a well-supported leadership structure with the chance to make your mark locally, while building a stable, high-quality team.
Your Responsibilities Will Include:
* Acting as CQC Registered Manager
* Overseeing care delivery, rota performance, safeguarding, and incident resolution
* Managing recruitment, supervision, appraisals, and training
* Maintaining all documentation, care plans, and QA systems
* Engaging with social workers, families, and local commissioners
* Monitoring and reporting on KPIs (complaints, care hours, audit scores)
* Driving annual growth and performance improvements
* Ensuring team morale, retention, and service user satisfaction remain high
