Salary: Circa £70,000 per annum
Job Type: Permanent, Full-Time
Qualification: RGN or RMN required
The Opportunity
We are recruiting for an experienced Nursing Home Manager to take the lead at a new nursing home in Haywards Heath.
This is an excellent opportunity to join an established and supportive care provider and take responsibility for a home from the very beginning.
Unlike stepping into an established service, you will have the opportunity to put your own stamp on the home, build and develop your team, shape the culture and play a key role in establishing the home as a high-quality nursing service within the local community.
The provider is looking for an experienced, clinically qualified Home Manager who combines strong leadership skills with a good understanding of quality, compliance and the commercial requirements of running a successful nursing home.
Key Responsibilities
As Home Manager, you will have overall responsibility for the successful operation and development of the home.
Your responsibilities will include:
Taking overall responsibility for the day-to-day management of the nursing home
Leading the home through its opening and development
Recruiting, building and developing a high-performing care and nursing team
Creating a positive culture focused on high-quality, person-centred care
Ensuring the home operates in line with CQC regulations and required quality standards
Providing strong leadership and support to nurses, carers and the wider management team
Maintaining effective governance, auditing and quality assurance processes
Ensuring residents receive safe, effective and compassionate care
Developing strong relationships with residents, families, healthcare professionals and other external stakeholders
Managing staffing levels and ensuring the home has the appropriate skills and resources in place
Supporting occupancy growth and the commercial performance of the home
Managing budgets and maintaining effective control of operational costs
Ensuring policies, procedures and regulatory requirements are consistently followed
Creating an environment where employees feel supported, developed and engaged
Taking ownership of the overall performance and reputation of the home
About You
We are looking for an experienced nursing home leader who is comfortable taking ownership of a new service and building a successful home from the outset.
To be considered, you should:
Be a qualified RGN or RMN with a valid NMC registration
Have previous experience as a Home Manager, Registered Manager or Nursing Home Manager
Have strong experience within a nursing home environment
Have a thorough understanding of CQC regulations and quality standards
Be confident recruiting, developing and retaining a strong team
Have excellent leadership and people-management skills
Understand the operational and commercial requirements of running a successful care home
Be able to build positive relationships with residents, relatives and external professionals
Be passionate about delivering excellent standards of care
Be comfortable taking ownership and making decisions in a senior leadership position
Experience of opening, commissioning or developing a new care home would be advantageous, although this is not essential.
What's on Offer?
Salary circa £70,000 per annum
Opportunity to lead a new nursing home
The chance to recruit and build your own team
Genuine opportunity to shape the culture and direction of the home
Support from an established care provider and ownership team
Long-term opportunity to develop a successful, high-quality service
Autonomy and responsibility to make the home your own
