Lead with Purpose – Become a Registered Manager in Our Children’s Homes
We’re expanding our homes for children cared for, making this a truly exciting time to join South Tyneside Council.
Are you a compassionate, driven leader with a deep commitment to improving the lives of children and young people? We are seeking a Registered Manager to lead our Children’s Homes, where your expertise will shape a nurturing, safe, and empowering environment for those who need it most.
This is more than a management role — it’s a chance to make a lasting impact. You’ll be at the heart of a service that places the child’s voice at the centre of every decision, ensuring care is not only compliant with regulations but truly transformative. You’ll lead a dedicated team, foster a culture of excellence, and champion trauma-informed, therapeutic approaches that support healing and growth.
We’re looking for individuals who:
- Brings strong leadership and emotional resilience.
- Have a proven track record in residential childcare or similar settings.
- Are passionate about safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.
- Can inspire teams, drive quality improvement, and lead with integrity.
In return, you’ll join a forward-thinking council committed to professional development, innovation, and inclusive practice. You’ll receive robust support, reflective supervision, and the opportunity to shape services that genuinely change lives.
If you’re ready to lead with heart, challenge the status quo, and create a home where children feel safe, heard, and hopeful — we want to hear from you.
