Summary
Are you a Registered Manager currently stuck in the corporate grind, looking for an "Outstanding" opportunity within a 30-40 minute commute?
I am representing a specialist Children’s Residential provider opening a brand-new, high-spec 4-bed LD/EBD home in Chester (CH3). If you are based in Warrington, Altrincham, Sale, or Knutsford, this is a premier opportunity to lead a flagship service without the usual new-provider risks.
Why this is the right move for an experienced Leader:
We know that for high-caliber Managers, support is the #1 priority. This project isn't just a new home; it's a partnership with an elite leadership team:
The Mentorship: Report directly to a Care Director with 20 years of sector experience and a consistent history of 'Outstanding' Ofsted judgements.
The Support: Access to a renowned Social Care Consultant and Advocate to assist with registration and high-level clinical practice.
The Commute: Strategically located for an easy reverse-commute via the M56. Avoid the Manchester city-center traffic and enjoy a smoother drive to a stunning location.
The Property & Vision:
This stunning high-spec property is waiting... and it needs a visionary leader to match. You will have the "blank canvas" to hire your own team and implement a trauma-informed culture from Day 1, backed by a company that will not compromise on quality for the sake of KPIs.
We are looking for a Manager who:
Is already Ofsted-approved (or ready for the next step in their career).
Wants the autonomy to build their own team from scratch.
Values a "child-first" culture where staff well-being is a genuine priority.
The Offer:
Salary: Up to £58,000.
Culture: A "No Compromise" approach to care and safety.
Growth: The opportunity to establish a flagship service with the best support in the business.
If you would welcome a confidential introductory call to discuss the vision for this service, please apply with your CV or contact Sharon T at High5 Recruitment on 07516 020554.
