Transform a new LD & Mental Health branch. Lead CQC registration, governance, and CHC delivery. Full autonomy, direct partnership with the Director, and performance-linked growth in a high-acuity, clinically governed service.
Our client is a rapidly expanding domiciliary care provider entering a major growth phase across London and the Home Counties. Ignis Solutions have been exclusively retained to identify a Registered Manager with the leadership depth to mobilise and scale an entire branch into a flagship service.
