Quinton House & Quinton Gardens Nursing Home provides high-quality dementia, respite, and nursing care within a safe, person-centred environment. Our work is guided by strong values—compassion, professionalism, integrity, and respect—which shape the standards we expect from every member of our team.
We invest in our staff through ongoing training, clear leadership, and a supportive working culture. Collaboration with residents’ families and external professionals is central to our approach, ensuring transparency and continuity of care.
At Quinton House & Gardens, care isn’t just what we do - it’s who we are. Rated ‘Good’ by the CQC, we’re proud of the warm, person-centred community we’ve built, and we’re now looking for a Clinical Lead Assistant Manager to help us take that quality of care even further.
This is a role suitable for an experienced nurse who wants the clinical influence of a Clinical Lead alongside the operational scope of an Assistant Manager. You’ll shape the nursing and medical care our residents receive, while also playing a hands-on part in leading the wider team, staffing, quality and day to day running of the home.
If you’re a natural leader who leads by example, thrives on solving problems on the floor, and genuinely believes people deserve to be treated with dignity, compassion and respect - we’d love to hear from you.
Reporting to the Registered Manager and working closely with the Deputy Manager, you’ll be a visible, trusted presence across the Home - as comfortable leading a shift and supporting a residents care plan as you are contributing to rotas, audits, supervisions and inspection readiness.
You will:
-
Lead, support and facilitate the nursing and medical needs of our residents, ensuring care is always centred on their wishes, dignity and independence.
-
Act as shift leader, directing the effective day-to-day running of the Home and staff team.
-
Support the Registered Manager and Deputy Manager in the efficient management of care delivery, deputising where required.
-
Oversee staff rotas, ensuring the right skills and numbers are on duty at all times.
-
Deliver formal supervisions, appraisals and mentoring that help your team grow.
-
Keep care records, audits and organisational documentation to a consistently high standard.
-
Work hand-in-hand with families, external healthcare professionals and multi-disciplinary teams to get the best outcomes for residents.
-
Help prepare for and support mock and CQC inspections, turning findings into action.
-
Promote and safeguard the welfare of every individual in our care.
