Wellbeing Lead

£14.5 - £16.6 per hourEstimated
Full-time

Wellbeing Lead

Every Great Care Home Needs Care. Every Exceptional Care Home Needs Magic.

Location: Bowburn Manor, Durham

Hours: 3 shifts per week

Contract: Permanent (with every other weekend off)

Salary: Competitive

We're Looking for the Person Who Brings the Spark.

Bowburn Manor is preparing to open its doors as Durham's newest luxury care home and we're searching for a very special individual to join our founding team.

This isn't simply an activities role.

It's a role for someone who creates moments.

Someone who notices when a resident needs cheering up.

Someone who learns people's stories and helps them reconnect with the hobbies, interests and passions that have shaped their lives.

Someone who knows that wellbeing is not measured by a timetable. It's measured by smiles, laughter, friendships and a sense of belonging.

As part of the St Mary's Care Group, we're committed to creating a home where residents don't simply live. They thrive.

The Opportunity

Opening a brand-new home gives us a rare opportunity to create something extraordinary from day one.

As our Wellbeing Lead, you'll help shape the culture of Bowburn Manor.

You'll design experiences that inspire.

Create opportunities that connect.

And support residents to continue doing the things they love while discovering new interests and possibilities.

Who You Are

A Creator of Moments

You understand that some moments may last only a few minutes but can create memories that last a lifetime.

A Community Builder

You love bringing people together and making meaningful connections both within the home and throughout the local community.

A Natural Encourager

You see potential where others see limitations and help residents build confidence to participate and enjoy life.

A Positivity Champion

Your enthusiasm is infectious and your energy helps make Bowburn Manor a vibrant and welcoming place to live.

What You'll Do

  • Design and deliver engaging wellbeing programmes.

  • Organise events, activities and celebrations.

  • Support meaningful one-to-one engagement.

  • Build links with local schools, community groups and organisations.

  • Encourage resident participation and independence.

  • Celebrate individual interests, life experiences and achievements.

  • Create opportunities that support emotional, social and physical wellbeing.

  • Help establish Bowburn Manor as a vibrant and connected community.

Why Join Bowburn Manor?

  • Be part of a brand-new luxury care home.

  • Shape the wellbeing programme from day one.

  • Creative freedom to bring your ideas to life.

  • Fantastic support from an experienced leadership team.

  • Ongoing training and career development.

  • Competitive salary and benefits.

  • The opportunity to make a real and lasting difference every day.

Join Our Story

At Bowburn Manor, we're not looking for someone to organise activities.

We're looking for someone to create joy, inspire connection and help our residents continue living rich, meaningful lives.

If that sounds like you, we'd love to welcome you to our opening team.
