Reporting to the Regional Manager, this autonomous role allows you to take overall responsibility for all aspects of running the service, ensuring the staff team enable the people we support to lead a valued and fulfilling life, maximising their potential physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially.

We want you to be involved in developing new initiatives in care practices, ensuring the overall delivery of a quality service, whilst working in accordance with our philosophy of care, its policies and procedures and all relevant legislation.

With highly effective communication skills, you will interact with all departments internally and externally to ensure the safe and efficient running of the service.
