Safety Manager | Care Concern Group
Up to £51,500 per annum | 10% Annual Bonus | Car Allowance | Car Allowance
Home-Based, With Travel Required Across England
Care Concern Group is entering one of the most ambitious phases in its history.
With more than 140 care homes across the UK and a clearly defined growth strategy that will significantly expand our national footprint over the coming years, we are scaling at pace across a mixed portfolio of owned, leased and managed properties.
As one of the UK's fastest-growing elderly care providers, safety is fundamental to everything we do.
Every care home we operate is someone's home. It is also a highly regulated environment where residents, colleagues, contractors and visitors depend on robust systems, strong leadership and a culture that puts safety first.
That is why we are looking for a Safety Manager to join our growing Safety Team.
This is not a traditional compliance role.
It is an opportunity to influence safety performance across a large and complex healthcare estate, partnering with operational leaders, Home Managers, Estates teams and senior stakeholders to ensure the highest standards of safety, compliance and risk management are consistently achieved.
Contract
- £41,000 - £51,000 per annum (DOE)
- 10% Annual Bonus (Discretionary)
- Car allowance (£5,000)
- Pension
- 5.6-weeks annual leave
- Private Medical Insurance
The Opportunity
Reporting to the Head of Safety, you will support homes across the South of England whilst working collaboratively with colleagues throughout the UK.
You'll be a visible presence within the business, building relationships, coaching leaders, challenging poor practice where necessary and helping operational teams create environments where residents and colleagues can thrive safely.
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.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
From investigating incidents and analysing trends to supporting regulatory visits and leading improvement initiatives, your work will directly influence the safety culture of one of the sector's fastest-growing providers.
You'll spend as much time building trust and influencing people as you will reviewing audits and compliance data.
What You'll Be Responsible For
- Supporting and promoting a positive safety culture across multiple care homes
- Providing expert guidance on health and safety, fire safety, environmental compliance and risk management
- Conducting audits, inspections and compliance reviews
- Supporting homes to develop and implement improvement plans
- Investigating accidents, incidents and near misses, identifying root causes and driving corrective actions
- Working alongside Estates and Maintenance teams to ensure statutory compliance requirements are achieved
- Supporting contractor management across critical compliance areas including fire safety, water safety, lifts, LOLER, asbestos and environmental services
- Analysing safety data, identifying trends and presenting findings to senior leaders
- Supporting homes during inspections, audits and regulatory visits
- Delivering training, coaching and practical support to operational teams
- Contributing to strategic safety projects and continuous improvement initiatives across the organisation
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who understands that great safety performance isn't achieved through policies alone.
It comes from engagement, influence and credibility.
You'll be confident building relationships with operational leaders, capable of challenging constructively and comfortable working within a fast-paced, multi-site environment.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You will ideally bring
- Experience within a Health & Safety, Fire Safety, Risk, Compliance or Operational Safety role
- A strong understanding of UK health and safety legislation and compliance requirements
- Experience conducting audits, inspections, investigations and risk assessments
- Excellent communication, report writing and stakeholder management skills
- Experience working with contractors, regulators and external stakeholders
- The ability to influence and engage colleagues at all levels of the organisation
- A full UK driving licence and willingness to travel regularly
Experience within health and social care would be highly advantageous, although we are equally interested in candidates from other highly regulated sectors who can demonstrate strong operational safety experience.
NEBOSH qualifications, fire safety experience and knowledge of care home regulations would also be beneficial.
