Pension
This is a full-time, home-based role with significant regional travel (typically four days per week) and participation in an on-call rota. The nature of the role requires flexibility, visibility across services, and a willingness to be present where you are most needed.
The Opportunity
You will oversee a regional portfolio of specialist services, supporting a wide range of complex needs including mental health, neuro and brain injury, dementia, and physical health.
This role combines strategic oversight with operational delivery. You’ll be responsible for driving consistency, improving performance, and embedding a culture of accountability and continuous improvement across your region.
What You’ll Be Doing
As Regional Operations Manager, you will lead from the front; developing and supporting your Registered Managers to deliver the highest standards of care while achieving strong operational and financial outcomes.
You will ensure services are always inspection-ready, confidently leading them through regulatory processes while maintaining robust governance, safeguarding, and compliance standards. Alongside this, you will take ownership of key commercial drivers, including occupancy growth, cost control, and workforce efficiency, ensuring each service operates at optimal performance.
A key part of the role will involve hands-on support where needed; stepping into underperforming services, leading turnaround plans, and stabilising performance. You’ll also maintain oversight of clinical delivery, including care planning, medication management, and the effective use of systems such as RADAR and Nourish.
Building strong relationships will be critical. You’ll work closely with families, commissioners, and internal support teams to ensure a joined-up, high-quality approach across all services.
