Home Manager | Nursing, Residential & Dementia Care
Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex
Salary: Up to £90k + bonus
Requirements:
- Registered Nurse (NMC PIN) preferred; strong non-nurse leaders with credible clinical governance oversight will be considered
- Proven Home Manager experience within a large nursing setting
- Demonstrable CQC track record: Good or Outstanding history, or credible turnaround experience
- Commercially confident across occupancy, budgets and workforce planning
The Role
Compass Associates are retained on an exclusive search for an incoming Home Manager on behalf of a well-established, values-led elderly care provider.
This is a significant leadership appointment within a nursing, residential and dementia service in Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex. The successful candidate will take full ownership of quality, workforce, commercial performance and stakeholder relationships, working closely with a hands-on Regional Director and an engaged Divisional team.
The remit is mandate-led and genuinely broad. The group is investing in senior leadership across the region and is looking for a Home Manager with the credibility and drive to reset quality, rebuild reputation locally, and take the service into a sustained Good rating and beyond.
Candidate
We are seeking a values-driven, credible and commercially astute leader with genuine change management experience.
You will combine clinical credibility (or strong governance oversight if non-nurse) with the confidence to lead across sales and marketing, workforce development and quality assurance in equal measure. You will be comfortable using data to inform decisions and equally comfortable in front of families, commissioners and regulators.
Experience of leading larger nursing services, delivering CQC improvement, or sustaining Good and Outstanding outcomes without agency reliance will be central. Above all, the successful candidate will be motivated by purpose and by the visible human impact of strong operational leadership.
Location
On-site at the home, Bexhill-on-Sea, East Sussex.
Summary
A rare opportunity to lead an established nursing service through a genuine improvement chapter, with a clear mandate, real backing from the Regional and Divisional team, and the platform to deliver visible operational and commercial impact.
Full package includes competitive base salary, performance-linked bonus, standard benefits and full IT and DBS support. Details on application.
