Ready to lead with compassion and create brighter futures for children? Apply today to join our team where your dedication, resilience, and care can transform young lives every day. 

We’re seeking a passionate, experienced, motivated Registered Manager to lead a brand-new solo children’s home near Swadlincote. This is a rare and exciting opportunity to open and shape a high-quality therapeutic home from day one, providing focused care for a child with emotional and behavioural difficulties (EBD). This role is ideal for a current Registered Manager or a strong Deputy ready to take the next step in their career, with full support from the Senior Leadership Team and access to sector-leading therapeutic and operational resources.

Job Type: Full-Time (40 hours per week), Monday – Friday; 9am – 5pm

Salary: £50,000 – £60,000

What We Offer:

  • Competitive Salary
  • 40-hour Full-Time Contract
  • 30 days annual leave (including bank holidays)
  • Option to complete Level 7
  • Performance-related bonus of up to £6,000 annually (based on Ofsted rating, compliance and occupancy)
  • Additional on-call payments
  • Ongoing CPD and development opportunities, including therapeutic and leadership training
  • Supportive Senior Management Team

What We’re Looking For:

  • Previous experience as a Registered Manager or Deputy Manager in a children’s residential setting (EBD/solo care preferred).
  • Strong knowledge of relevant legislation, regulations, and Ofsted inspection frameworks.
  • NVQ Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management for Residential Childcare (or willingness to complete).
  • A resilient, compassionate leader who can establish a positive culture from the outset.
  • A commitment to therapeutic, trauma-informed care and improving outcomes for children.

Requirements:

  • Must have the right to work in the UK.
  • Must be able to speak and understand English to a good standard for effective communication, record-keeping and safeguarding the wellbeing of those you will be supporting.
  • A full Enhanced DBS Check will be required for the successful candidates.
  • Please note – we do not currently hold a sponsorship licence and are therefore unable to offer visa sponsorship.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Oversee the Ofsted registration and successful launch of the solo home.
  • Recruit, develop, and lead a small, dedicated team with a therapeutic and child-centred approach.
  • Establish a nurturing and structured environment tailored to the individual needs of one child.
  • Maintain high standard of safeguarding and compliance with Children’s Homes Regulations and Ofsted expectations.
  • Build strong relationships with local authorities, external professionals, and families.
  • Embed a culture of reflection, stability and care that priorities the long-term outcomes of the child.
