Day Centre Manager
DAY CARE CENTRE MANAGER | LEICESTER | UP TO £30,000 | MONDAY-FRIDAY ONLY
There's a particular kind of care professional who reads "Monday to Friday, no weekends, no on-call" and thinks: that sounds too good to be true.
It isn't.
This is a Day Care Centre Manager role with a well-established, family-feel care group that has been looking after people in Leicester for over 20 years.
Eleven care homes and growing.
A strong Head Office and Quality team.
An Operations Director, Clinical Governance Director and hands-on Directors who actually show up.
The Day Centre sits alongside one of their residential homes, a genuinely distinctive setup.
You'll be managing care for up to 20 individuals during the day: giving families real respite, and giving people living with dementia and mental health conditions somewhere they actually want to be.
And this isn't just a pleasant holding facility.
The group has been actively investing in this Day Centre, it's becoming a proper community hub, with ambitions to grow into structured therapeutic programming, well-being activities and meaningful community partnerships.
The right person won't just manage it.
They'll help shape what it becomes.
What you'll need:
You don't need a Registered Manager background for this one, although it would be useful.
This role could suit a few different profiles:
- A Senior Carer or Team Leader with NVQ Level 3, ready to step up into management
- A Deputy Manager whose home life needs a schedule that works with you, not against you
- A Registered Manager who loves the care part but could happily live without the CQC registration and the 3am phone calls
Dementia care experience is important.
A genuine warmth for the people you support even more so.
Please note: This role is unable to offer visa sponsorship.
You'll need to have the right to work in the UK independently to be considered.
The package:
Up to £30,000 plus benefits and that work-life balance that's genuinely hard to find in this sector.
