Home Manager - Leicester Up to 40,000 + 10,000 + Performance Bonus Twenty years in residential care and still growing. That's not luck, that's what happens when a family-run care group genuinely gets what good care looks like. The home you'd be stepping into has fewer than 30 beds, a current CQC rating of Good across all domains, and a waiting list. Residents, staff and families are overwhelmingly local, the kind of place where people actually know each other. It matters. You'd have real support around you: an experienced Quality team, an Operations Director and Directors who remain actively hands-on. The group is in a period of measured growth, with the portfolio set to expand. If you've got ambitions beyond this home, there's a path. To be considered: You'll have had previous care home management experience, with a demonstrable track record through CQC inspection. An NVQ Level 5 in Leadership and Management is preferred, though strong candidates working towards it will be considered. The package: Up to 40,000 basic salary, with a 10,000+ performance bonus on top. That's a serious number and it reflects what this group expects and rewards. If you're ready to take on a settled, well-regarded home and drive it towards Outstanding, this is worth a conversation. Apply with your CV, even if it needs updating, or get in touch directly for a confidential discussion.

Registered Service Manager - Care at Home Highlands Hospital discharge pressure and social care reform are back in the headlines, and the focus is clear. People need to be supported safely at home, with services that can respond quickly and consistently. If care at home is where your experience sits, and you are comfortable running a service that changes hour by hour, this is a role where your judgement has real impact across Highland communities. The role is based from an office around 14 miles north of Inverness, leading an established rural care at home service covering wide geography and varied logistics. This is operational leadership in its truest sense. Care at home is the core. Rotas that shift daily. Lone worker oversight. Care plans that must stay live. Decisions that cannot wait for tomorrow. The service currently delivers around 700 hours of care per week, with a clear and realistic ambition to grow beyond 1,000 hours sustainably. The team includes 26 care practitioners, with plans to build above 30, supported by a Care Coordinator and Team Leads. You hold registered responsibility and act as the operational anchor for the service. Picture a working week where responsibility is clear and visible. Care plans that reflect people's lives as they are now, not how they looked months ago. Recruitment, retention, supervision and performance that protect standards and steady the rota. Relationships that matter, including commissioners and health and social care partners across the region. Quality assurance that stands up to inspection and leads to genuine improvement, not paperwork for its own sake. The sector is evolving. Investment, reform and workforce focus are reshaping how care at home is delivered in Scotland. If building a stable, compliant service through change appeals to you, this environment will feel familiar. What will help you succeed. Several years working within care at home services, not just social care more broadly. Leadership experience managing multiple priorities in a live operational setting. Confidence with regulation, inspection standards, documentation and stakeholder engagement. A full UK driving licence and access to a car. Qualifications A professional qualification in health, social work or a related field at SCQF Level 9. A Leadership and Management qualification at SCQF Level 10, or a clear commitment to complete. SVQ Level 4 in Health and Social Care, or readiness to move quickly towards it. A competitive salary is offered, aligned to experience. Right to work in the UK and a PVG check are required. Sponsorship may be available for the right background, although care at home experience remains essential. Relocation is achievable for those moving to the Highlands, with open discussion around housing and potential temporary accommodation support during the transition. If your background is firmly rooted in care at home and you are ready to take registered responsibility for a rural Highlands service, send your CV to Recruitment Panda, even if it is not up to date, or call Tim the Principal Consultant working closely with this employer.
