Job Description:

Help us build something exceptional for children, young people and families in Herefordshire.

Location: Herefordshire
Salary: £45-£50K, dependent on experience
Hours: Full-time
This is more than a Registered Manager role. It’s an opportunity to build a service.

Are you an experienced Registered Manager who is ready for a new challenge? Someone who knows what great care looks like, has the confidence to lead others, and wants the opportunity to shape a service rather than simply maintain one?

At Principle Care, we are preparing to establish our short breaks and outreach services in Herefordshire. We are looking for an ambitious, values-led Registered Manager to help us turn that vision into reality.

This is a genuine opportunity to make your mark.

You will take a leading role in establishing our services, developing your own team, shaping operational processes and creating a positive culture from the outset. You will have the opportunity to bring your experience, ideas and leadership style to the table, working alongside our leadership team to build services that make a meaningful difference to children, young people and their families.

We want someone who sees the possibilities, enjoys developing people and processes, and understands that exceptional care starts with a clear vision, a capable team and the right culture.

About the role

As our Dual Registered Manager, you will lead the development and day-to-day management of our Herefordshire short breaks and outreach services, ensuring that both are safe, effective, person-centred and responsive to the needs of children, young people and their families.

You will have responsibility for establishing robust systems, building a skilled and committed workforce, and ensuring that our services meet the relevant regulatory, safeguarding and quality requirements.

Your role will include:

Building your own team: Recruit, develop and lead a team of people who share your commitment to high-quality, compassionate and person-centred support.

Creating the systems and processes: Develop effective operational procedures, quality assurance arrangements, workforce processes and ways of working that support safe, consistent service delivery.

Leading service development: Help establish our Herefordshire provision, translating our vision into practical services that respond to local needs and deliver meaningful outcomes.

Driving quality and compliance: Maintain strong safeguarding, governance, recording, risk management and quality assurance arrangements, ensuring regulatory requirements are understood and embedded in practice.

Developing people: Create a positive learning culture where staff feel supported, understand their responsibilities and have the skills and confidence to deliver excellent support.

Working in partnership: Build constructive relationships with commissioners, families, professionals and partner organisations, strengthening confidence in our services.

Making a difference: Keep children and young people at the heart of decisions, promoting their rights, voice, choice, independence and wellbeing.

You will be supported by the wider Principle Care leadership team, but we are looking for someone who is comfortable taking ownership, making informed decisions and helping shape how the services develop.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for an experienced Registered Manager who combines strong operational leadership with genuine passion for improving the lives of children and young people.

You will bring:

· At least 2 years experience managing regulated residential care for children and a strong understanding of the responsibilities of a Registered Manager.

The relevant registration, qualifications and experience required to manage the proposed services under the applicable regulatory arrangements. You will need to have:

• Level 3 in Childrens Residential Care (Essential)
• Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management for Residential Childcare or a willingness to sign up to this course within 3 months of appointment

· A sound understanding of safeguarding, regulatory compliance, quality assurance, risk management and workforce development.

· Experience recruiting, leading and developing teams, with the ability to create a culture of accountability, collaboration and continuous improvement.

· The confidence to establish systems and processes, identify what needs to be done and turn plans into practical action.

· Strong communication and partnership-working skills, with the ability to build trust with families, commissioners, staff and professionals.

· A commitment to person-centred, strengths-based and trauma-informed practice, recognising each child or young person as an individual.

· The resilience, initiative and adaptability needed to lead a developing service and respond positively to challenges.

· Experience of short breaks, outreach, children’s services or supporting children and young people with disabilities would be particularly valuable.

· Above all, we want someone who is motivated by the opportunity to build a service they can be proud of.

Why join Principle Care?

The opportunity to create, not just maintain. You will help establish services from the outset, influence how they operate and develop processes that support excellent care.

Real ownership and influence. We want your professional expertise, ideas and experience to shape the service. This is an opportunity to take responsibility, make improvements and see the results of your leadership.

Build a team around shared values. You will have the opportunity to recruit and develop people who believe in the importance of relationships, dignity, inclusion and individual choice.

Make a meaningful difference. High-quality short breaks and outreach can support children and young people to flourish while giving families and carers valuable support and reassurance.

Work with an experienced leadership team. You will have the opportunity to contribute to the development of Principle Care’s services in Herefordshire, with support from the wider organisation as the provision grows.

What does success look like?

Success will mean establishing services that are safe, well organised and compliant; building a capable and motivated team; embedding effective systems and quality assurance; developing positive relationships with families and commissioners; and creating support that genuinely improves experiences and outcomes for children and young people.

We are not simply looking for someone to manage a service. We are looking for someone who wants to help build one.

Ready to make your mark?

If you are an experienced Registered Manager looking for the opportunity to lead, create, develop and make a lasting difference, we would love to hear from you.

Bring your experience, your ideas and your ambition. Help us build short breaks and outreach services in Herefordshire that children, young people and families can trust.

Apply now and be part of the next chapter of Principle Care.
