In this pivotal role, you’ll provide guidance and oversight to our Registered Managers, ensuring safe, person-centred care that meets regulatory standards and exceeds expectations. You'll be instrumental in building strong staff teams, maintaining high-quality service delivery, and fostering excellent relationships with residents, families, and local partners.

As Operations Manager, you’ll play a vital leadership role in ensuring our care services are consistently safe, responsive, and high-quality. Your responsibilities will include:
- Leading, mentoring, and empowering Registered Managers across multiple Care and Nursing Home sites, ensuring they are supported, motivated, and equipped to lead their teams effectively.
- Maintaining full compliance with all CQC regulations, safeguarding protocols, and statutory obligations, while promoting a strong culture of accountability and continuous improvement.
- Driving recruitment, retention, and workforce development strategies, ensuring each service is adequately staffed with skilled, compassionate individuals who reflect our values and commitment to excellence.
- Managing and resolving escalated concerns, including complaints or safeguarding issues, ensuring outcomes are handled sensitively, promptly, and in line with company policies.
- Championing operational performance, using tools like audits, KPIs, and structured service reviews to monitor quality, identify areas for improvement, and implement positive change that benefits both staff and residents.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
