Registered Manager

You've got experience of working in a regulated activity setting and are now looking for that next step up where you can use your enthusiasm and great ideas to lead a team to deliver an excellent service. All you need is the perfect environment to put your skills to great use. Welcome to Richmond Fellowship as a Registered Manager.

Richmond Fellowship is part of Recovery Focus, a national group of charities highly experienced in providing specialist support services to individuals and families living with the effects of mental ill health, drug and alcohol use, gambling and domestic violence. We know that recovery can look and feel very different to each and every one of us. But we also know that if we provide the right support, at the right time, we can inspire recovery nationwide and that recovery is possible for everyone.

Right now, we're looking for a Registered Manager with a positive 'can-do' approach to manage Windsor Road Care Home in Ansdell, Lancashire. Here, we provide 24-hour residential care for individuals aged 18 and over living with enduring mental ill health. Our service can support up to 11 people at any time. As well as being responsible for the operational management of the service, including service delivery within policies, procedures and quality standards, you'll make sure we comply with relevant legislation. You'll also manage team leaders and/or recovery workers and help the area manager to prepare and deliver business plans and budgets. Preparing the service for inspection visits to achieve an 'Outstanding' rating, managing contracts and risk, monitoring compliance and reviewing the services we deliver and implementing changes to improve them - you'll do all of this, and more.

To succeed, you'll need experience of contract management, plus the competency it takes to manage regulated activity and attain relevant qualifications as well as meet the standards required by CQC. A proven ability to develop business plans and manage budgets is important too, as is an up-to-date understanding of the recovery model and the ability to ensure the safe management and administration of medication. Outcome focused, with a collaborative and flexible approach, you're great at motivating and inspiring others, adept at managing conflicting priorities, negotiate with tact and diplomacy and have good investigation skills.
