Registered Manager - New Childrens Residential Home

Registered Manager New Childrens Residential Home

Location: Solihull, West Midlands
Salary: £45,000 + 10% shareholding in the business
Contract: Full-Time, Permanent
Start Date: Immediate

We are working with an experienced team who are returning to the childrens residential care sector following the successful sale of their previous provider. They are now establishing a new childrens residential service in Solihull and are looking for an experienced Registered Manager to play a key role in launching and developing the business.

This is a particularly interesting opportunity for an ambitious Registered Manager, as the successful candidate will receive a 10% shareholding in the entire business, rather than simply the individual home.

The Opportunity

The provider has an established relationship with the local authority, including the Solihull commissioning team, and is now preparing to move forward with the registration of their new home.

The property is a spacious 5-bed, 1,800 sq. ft. home with a large garden and excellent local amenities, including parks, shops and other facilities.

The exact care specialism will be determined around the successful Manager's experience, with the home intended to support young people with either Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties (EBD) or Learning Disabilities (LD).

An experienced Responsible Individual is already in place, having previously worked with the owners and bringing a strong understanding of the sector and the registration process.

The Role

As Registered Manager, you will have the opportunity to take ownership of the service from the outset, working alongside the Responsible Individual to progress the necessary applications and establish the home ahead of opening.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Leading the registration process and preparing the home for opening
• Developing and implementing the home's statement of purpose and operational framework
• Building and leading a high-quality care team
• Establishing strong standards of safeguarding and care
• Developing relationships with professionals, families and commissioning teams
• Ensuring the home is prepared to meet regulatory requirements
• Overseeing referrals and placement planning
• Creating a positive, child-centred culture within the home
• Taking responsibility for the ongoing management and development of the service

About You

We are looking for a proven Registered Manager who has successfully led a children's residential home previously.

You will ideally have:

• Previous experience as a Registered Manager within children's residential care
• A successful track record of managing and developing a children's home
• Strong knowledge of Ofsted requirements and the Children's Homes Regulations 2015
• Experience working with either EBD or LD services
• Strong leadership and staff-management skills
• A genuine commitment to achieving positive outcomes for young people
• The ambition to play a significant role in building a new service and business

Whats on Offer

• £45,000 salary
• 10% shareholding in the entire business
• Opportunity to have genuine ownership and influence from the beginning
• New 5-bed children's residential home in Solihull
• Spacious 1,800 sq. ft. property with a large garden
• Experienced Responsible Individual already in place
• Established relationships with local commissioning teams
• Immediate start available
• Opportunity to shape the service around your own area of expertise
• Significant long-term potential through the business shareholding

This is an opportunity for an experienced Registered Manager who is looking for more than simply another management position and wants to have a genuine stake in the development of a new children's residential business.
