Location: Halesowen
Salary: Competitive package up to £70,000
Contract: Full-Time, Permanent
RJS Resourcing is currently working with an established provider of children’s residential care who are looking for an experienced and passionate Registered Manager to lead one of their established homes in the Birmingham/Dudley area.
The home is rated Good by Ofsted and has a supportive and experienced senior leadership team in place. This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Registered Manager to build on strong foundations, shape the service and make a lasting difference to the lives of young people.
The Role
You will take overall responsibility for the day-to-day management of a 3-bed children’s residential home supporting young people with emotional and behavioural difficulties (EBD).
Working alongside an experienced senior leadership team, you will be responsible for maintaining the high standards already established within the home while continuing to develop the service and achieve positive outcomes for the young people.
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.
