Summary
Are you a high-achieving Registered Manager in Stoke-on-Trent looking for a flagship project that matches your ambition?
The Commute: While situated in Chester, this home is conveniently accessible for a Stoke-based Manager. The drive is a straightforward route via the A50/A51 or M6/M56, making it a highly viable "reverse-commute" for a role of this seniority and salary level.
I am representing a new specialist provider opening a stunning 4-bed LD/EBD home in Chester (CH3). This is a premier opportunity for a Manager who is ready to lead from the front and build an "Outstanding" service from the ground up.
Why this is the right "Next Step" for you:
Opening a new home is a challenge, which is why this provider has ensured you have the best infrastructure in the sector:
Elite Mentorship: You will report directly to a Care Director with 20 years of experience and a consistent history of achieving 'Outstanding' Ofsted judgements.
Specialist Support: You will have a dedicated Social Care Consultant and Advocate by your side to ensure every clinical and operational detail is perfect.
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.
Support: Unrivaled clinical and back-office mentorship.
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.
