5. Rotas & Staffing: Prepare and manage clinical staff rotas to ensure that the residents' needs are always met. You'll play an essential part in staffing and scheduling to keep everything running like clockwork.
6. Motivating the Team: With your positive leadership, you'll delegate responsibilities, promote teamwork, and encourage staff to always strive for excellence in everything they do.
What We're Looking For:
1. Leadership Experience: You'll need previous management experience, ideally in the care sector, so you can hit the ground running and lead with confidence.
2. Compassionate & Caring Nature: We want someone who truly cares about the residents and leads with kindness, empathy, and understanding.
3. Organised & Detail-Oriented: You'll need to be able to manage multiple tasks, keep accurate records, and ensure all procedures are followed to a high standard.
