We're looking for an experienced Responsible Individual to support a new children's residential provider through the registration of their first service in Newquay.
The provider is developing a children's home operating across three buildings, with plans to support up to six children. The service is currently at the registration stage and already has a highly experienced proposed Registered Manager in place.
This is a flexible consultancy role that would suit someone who enjoys helping new services get off the ground and wants to be involved from the very beginning.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
