Children's Home Manager - Specialist Provision for Children
Location: Barnstaple
Position: Full-Time, Permanent
Salary: 48,000 - 55,000

About Us:
Are you ready to lead a groundbreaking initiative? We are working with a passionate, family-run organisation driven by the belief that every child deserves a chance to thrive. Our specialist 4 bedded children's home is focused on supporting children with complex needs helping them to reach their full potential and to recover from adverse childhood experiences. We are looking for a Registered Home Manager who is dedicated, compassionate, and eager to make a real difference. This is your opportunity to shape a service that will transform the lives of vulnerable children.

What Makes This Role Special?

This is no ordinary managerial position. As Registered Home Manager, you will:
- Lead a Trailblazing Team committed to supporting children to reach their full potential and have the best life chances
- Shape a New Approach to Care by innovating, researching, and developing new methods to create life-changing outcomes for the children in your care.
- Collaborate with Experts and build partnerships with external health professionals, ensuring that medical interventions are provided in-house.
- Empower Children through positive risk-taking, supporting their growth and progress in a safe, nurturing environment.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Inspire & Lead: Manage a team of dedicated professionals who share your passion for children. Provide training, development, and guidance to help them succeed.
  • Champion Mental Health: Be the expert and advocate for who have experienced trauma. Use your knowledge and research to create a forward-thinking care environment.
  • Collaborate with Health Professionals: Work with medical teams to deliver tailored interventions, making sure children get the support they need.
  • Drive Innovation: Engage in continuous learning and share insights with the team, transforming practices based on the latest research and approaches.
  • Create Positive Change: Use positive risk-taking strategies to empower children, giving them the tools to succeed, no matter their background.

Who We're Looking For:

  • Proven Experience: You've already made an impact in an Ofsted Registered Children's Home and are looking for your next challenge.
  • Passion for Mental Health: You're excited to work with children facing additional mental health needs and are committed to understanding and overcoming the unique challenges they present.
  • Eagerness to Learn & Lead: You thrive on learning through research and training and want to pass that knowledge on to your team, creating a culture of continuous improvement.
  • Collaborative Spirit: You have the ability to work with various professionals, always advocating for the children's needs and ensuring they are met.
  • Innovative Mindset: You're ready to lead the charge in developing creative, forward-thinking strategies that will have a lasting impact on children to help them work through past trauma.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Incredible Career Development: As part of a growing organisation, you will have ample opportunities to develop professionally and make a lasting impact.
  • Fantastic induction: the existing manager is moving to open a new home within the company and therefore will be working alongside and supporting the new manager throughout the induction period and beyond.
  • Supportive & Inclusive Environment: Work alongside a dedicated team in a family-oriented company that prioritises your growth and well-being as much as the children's.
  • Competitive Salary & Benefits: We offer a competitive salary and a comprehensive benefits package, with ongoing training and development opportunities.

Are you ready to make a real difference?

If you have the experience, passion, and drive to lead this exciting challenge, we would love to hear from you.
