We’re recruiting for a senior leadership role with a well-established residential and nursing home in Derbyshire. The service supports older adults with a range of clinical needs and is now seeking a confident, experienced Home Manager to step in and take full ownership of the home’s operations, compliance, and team performance.

This is not a turnaround. The bones are there; what’s needed now is someone who can lead with presence, strengthen systems, and keep the home inspection-ready and safe on a day-to-day basis.

Home Manager | Elderly Care (Residential & Nursing) | Derbyshire | £55K + Bonus

As the Home Manager, you will:

• Lead all aspects of care, compliance, audits, staffing, and operational delivery
• Manage a mixed team including Nurses, Clinical Leads, Senior Carers, and the Deputy
• Oversee medication, risk, safeguarding, care planning, and documentation
• Ensure strong working relationships with families, regulators, and local partners
• Take the lead on inspections and quality reviews, with proper backing from the regional team
• Supervise and develop clinical staff, including coaching, reflection, and development planning
• Maintain structure and morale under pressure, and build a culture that works from the inside out

This role would be ideal if you:

• Hold an active NMC pin and have proven leadership experience in a residential or nursing home
• Are already working as a Registered Manager, Clinical Lead, or Deputy Manager with complete clinical oversight
• Understand how to manage the balance between people, paperwork, and compliance
• Have experience handling audits, inspections, and CQC feedback, and know what Good looks like
• Want a role where you can lead confidently, without being micromanaged
• Are looking to make a meaningful difference in a well-run service with the freedom to improve and grow

In return, you’ll receive:

• A salary of £55,000 per annum
• Performance-related bonus scheme
• 25 days annual leave + bank holidays
• Paid DBS, company pension, and life insurance
• Access to same day pay (if needed)
• Free on-site parking
• Ongoing CPD, funded qualifications, and in-house development
• A stable, high-trust environment where you can lead without red tape

If you’re leading clinical care but not receiving the recognition, or you’re ready for full-service leadership, this could be your next step.
