HOME MANAGER - Specialist Mental Health Service
North Wales | £55,000 - £60,000 + Bonus Potential
Full-time | Complex Mental Health | Commissioning Leadership Role

Are you ready to lead something bigger than just a service — to launch and shape the next generation of residential mental health care?

We're seeking a dynamic and commercially-minded Home Manager to take the reins of a specialist mental health service preparing to double in capacity and enter a new era of growth.

This role isn't for someone who wants to maintain the status quo.

This service is in the final stages of a major expansion and full fit-out.

You'll be instrumental in commissioning the new phase — from service design and staffing to regulatory preparation, marketing, and occupancy planning.

Your remit will include:

• 
  

  Launching and embedding a new unit within an existing service

  
  


• 
  

  Driving referrals and placements with a strong commercial eye

  
  


• 
  

  Leading a staff team who need clear direction, renewed energy, and purpose

  
  


• 
  

  Supporting a complex mental health cohort with trauma-informed care approaches

  
  

You'll have the support of a capable Deputy, an engaged regional lead, and a strong infrastructure — but the vision and pace will need to come from you.

You don't need to be a nurse — but you do need to be:

• 
  

  NVQ Level 5 qualified (or equivalent leadership qualification)

  
  


• 
  

  Proven in managing services through change, growth, or turnaround

  
  


• 
  

  Comfortable with the demands of CIW, commissioning, and compliance

  
  


• 
  

  Commercially savvy — you know how to make a service work both clinically and financially

  
  


• 
  

  Passionate about mental health and capable of leading with both heart and accountability

  
  

This is a rare opportunity to lead a new chapter in a well-positioned service, and put your mark on something from the ground up.

If you're ready to step into a commissioning-led leadership role with real autonomy and growth potential, we'd love to hear from you.
