Registered Manager

Registered Manager - Small, Friendly Care Home

We’re working with a small residential care home for older people in Lanark, and we’re looking for someone special to take on the role of Registered Manager.

This is a lovely home, run by a charitable organisation, that genuinely feels warm and welcoming. It supports just ten residents, so it has a real sense of community and a homely atmosphere. The home is already rated as Excellent by the Care Inspectorate and is well-regarded in the local area. Your role will be to keep those standards high and make sure residents continue to receive the kind, person-centred care they’re used to.

This could be the ideal next step for a Deputy or Care Manager who’s ready to take that step up, or it might suit an experienced Registered Manager who’s looking for a smaller, more manageable home where you can focus on quality rather than paperwork.

What’s on offer:

• Starting salary between £38,500 - £39,500 depending on experience. Rising by £1000 once registered with the Care Inspectorate
• A calm, well-run home with a long-standing, supportive team
• The chance to work for a charity that puts residents’ needs first, not profit
• A genuinely rewarding role where you can make a real difference

About the role:

• Full responsibility for the day-to-day running of the home
• Leading and developing a committed staff team
• Making sure the home continues to meet Care Inspectorate standards
• Taking the lead on health and safety and legal compliance
• Promoting the values and ethos of the charity
• Reporting to the board on quality, performance and ongoing improvements

What we’re looking for:

• Ideally we’re looking for an experienced Registered Manager / Home Manager to take up this role. We are open to considering a Deputy Manager who can demonstrate the ability to step up into the Registered Manager responsibilities
• Experience in elderly care, ideally within a residential setting
• Strong leadership skills with a collaborative approach
• A good understanding of care regulations and best practice
• SVQ 4 / SCQF Level 7 in Health and Social Care or equivalent
• Able to join the on-call rota (1 in 3 weeks)
• Within a reasonable commute of Lanark
