Registered Home Manager | Neuro-Rehabilitation | Complex Care
Kingston upon Thames, Surrey
£70,000k - £75,000k
Compass Associates are exclusively supporting the appointment of a Registered Home Manager for a specialist care service in Kingston upon Thames, supporting adults with complex neurological, physical and long-term conditions.

The Role
As Registered Home Manager, you will provide visible and hands-on leadership across the service, including:
- Taking overall responsibility for the day-to-day management of the home.
- Maintaining high standards of care, governance and CQC compliance.
- Leading and developing the senior team and wider workforce.
- Overseeing safeguarding, risk management, complaints, incidents and quality assurance.
- Ensuring effective care planning and person-centred outcomes.
- Working closely with the multidisciplinary team to support high-quality rehabilitation and care.
- Supporting recruitment, retention, supervision and staff development.
- Building strong relationships with residents, families and external professionals.
- Managing staffing levels, budgets and overall operational performance.
- Driving continuous improvement across the home.
- Working closely with the wider leadership team to support the continued development of the service.
