P4 Recruitment is working in partnership with a well-established, national health and social care charity to recruit an experienced Registered Manager to oversee an established Extra Care service in Kirkby.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced social care leader who is passionate about delivering high-quality, person-centred support and creating an environment where older people can maintain their independence, dignity and quality of life.

The service supports almost older adults to live independently within their own apartments in a purpose-built Extra Care complex.

Providing a home-from-home environment, the service offers individuals the reassurance of having support available when needed, while maintaining choice, independence and control over their daily lives.

You will oversee a well-established staff team, with approximately 10–12 staff working during the day and two staff members overnight.

• Managing behaviours that require intensive support planning and ensuring appropriate strategies are in place.
• Monitoring service performance, operational standards and staffing resources.
• Building positive relationships with residents, families and external professionals.
• Promoting independence, choice, dignity and positive outcomes for everyone using the service.

• Previous experience as a CQC Registered Manager or in a senior management position within adult social care.
• A strong understanding of CQC regulations, compliance and quality standards.

• Experience supporting older adults within Extra Care, residential care or similar adult social care settings.
• An understanding of complex needs and intensive support planning.
