Operations Director – Care Homes (South)
Salary: £100,000 + Bonus & Benefits
Location: South of England (covering 7 homes)
I’m working with a leading care group that is seeking an experienced Regional Manager to oversee 7 homes across the South of England. This is a fantastic opportunity to join an organisation that has already invested heavily in its homes, creating modern, stylish environments with state-of-the-art facilities. Now, they’re focused on raising care quality and clinical standards, and they need a proven leader to drive this transformation.
The Role:
Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you will take full operational responsibility for 7 homes, with a clear focus on improving care quality, compliance, and overall performance. Your key responsibilities will include:
* Implementing and embedding quality improvement strategies.
* Supporting and developing Home Managers to enhance care delivery.
* Ensuring homes consistently meet and exceed regulatory standards.
* Driving occupancy, financial performance, and team engagement.
* Fostering a positive, resident-centred culture across all sites.
About You:
To be successful in this role, you’ll need to be a seasoned regional or operations leader with a strong track record in the care home sector. While being a qualified nurse is a plus, the most critical factor is your proven experience in driving quality improvements across a multi-site portfolio. You’ll bring:
* Senior operational experience within the care home sector (regional or director-level).
* A strong background in turning around and improving care standards.
* Excellent leadership skills with the ability to inspire and develop teams.
* A deep understanding of CQC regulations and compliance.
* A passion for delivering high-quality, person-centred care.
What’s on Offer:
* Salary: £100,000 + bonus and benefits.
* The opportunity to lead meaningful change in a growing, quality-focused group.
* A collaborative and supportive leadership team.
* Genuine career progression opportunities.
