REGISTERED MANAGER | MENTAL HEALTH RESIDENTIAL | BRISTOL | £40,000-£45,000
Mental health residential care at its best is transformative.
At its worst, it's underfunded, under-supported, and burning through managers every two years.
This is the former.
This is a 21-bed residential service for adults with mental health conditions and it has just achieved a clean Good rating across all five CQC key questions.
That matters, because the journey to get there is worth knowing about.
Earlier assessments identified areas for improvement in safe care and governance.
The provider acted.
Medicines management was overhauled, governance strengthened, permanent staffing increased, and the team stabilised.
When CQC returned in May 2025, the improvements were clear.
One resident told inspectors: "The staff are a blessing.
They've changed my life."
That's not a service in crisis.
That's a service that knows how to put things right and has done.
Behind everything the service does sits a clinical infrastructure most providers can only dream of: an in-house psychologist, assistant psychologists and a PBS specialist trainer.
You won't be making decisions in isolation.
HR and finance are handled centrally too, which means your focus stays where it belongs on your team and the people in your care.
The home has real character.
Gardens, a minibus for getting residents out into the community, a residents' kitchenette, and a pet-friendly environment that reflects the kind of homely, human ethos this organisation is built on.
Close to local shops and public transport.
What's on offer:
£40,000-£45,000 depending on experience
6 weeks' paid holiday plus bank holidays
Paid two-week induction
Ongoing CPD and specialist training
Long service and recognition awards
Pension, sick pay and shopping discounts
What you'll need:
At least three years' experience as a Registered Manager
A solid background working with adults with mental health conditions and/or complex needs
Level 5 Diploma in Health and Social Care (or actively working toward it)
Confident, values-led leadership with strong CQC knowledge
A genuine commitment to least-restrictive, recovery-focused practice
Please note: This role is unable to offer visa sponsorship.
You'll need the right to work in the UK independently.

DEPUTY MANAGER | RESIDENTIAL & DEMENTIA CARE | LEICESTERSHIRE | UP TO £35,000
Being a Deputy Manager in care isn't easy.
You're the calm in the chaos, the one your team leans on, your manager relies on, and residents and families trust without question.
But the right home makes all the difference.
And this one has something most can't offer.
The Manager here has just been named Manager of the Year within the group.
That tells you everything about the culture, the standards, and the kind of leadership you'd be working alongside.
This is a residential and dementia care home set in a village location just outside Leicester, the kind of place that feels genuinely homely rather than institutional, with a real community feel and a team that takes pride in what they do.
Spacious en-suite rooms, accessible gardens, a full activities programme, and a minibus that gets residents out and about regularly.
The home is rated Good by CQC and the leadership team believe , with good reason, that Outstanding is within reach.
You'll be stepping into a role with real substance: supporting the day-to-day running of the home, leading and developing the team, and helping push a service that's already performing well toward something even better.
Behind you, you'll have the full weight of a well-established, family-run care group, 20+ years in the sector, an experienced Operations Director, Clinical Governance Director, a Quality and Compliance team, and Directors who are genuinely hands-on.
What we're looking for:
An experienced Deputy Manager or strong Senior/Team Leader ready to step up, with a solid background in residential or dementia care and the leadership maturity to make an immediate impact.
Please note: This role is unable to offer visa sponsorship.
You'll need the right to work in the UK independently.
The package:
Up to £35,000 (DOE)
5.6 weeks' annual leave
Contributory pension
Paid induction and ongoing training
Real progression within a stable, growing group

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.
Interested?
Apply with a CV, even if it needs updating.
Or give us a call directly for a confidential conversation before you do anything else.
