- Confidence identifying areas for improvement and putting effective action plans in place
- Experience developing and retaining successful teams
- Good business acumen, with an understanding of budgets, occupancy, staffing and the wider performance of a nursing home
- A commitment to providing stable, long-term leadership for the home
- Full driving licence and access to a car – essential
What You’ll Receive
- Salary up to £65,000
- 40 hours per week
- Strong annual leave package
- Life insurance
- Sick pay
- Enhanced parental leave
- A strong support system around the home
Taking Ownership of the Home
