Operations Manager | Nursing Homes | Worcestershire | Up to £80,000
Most
operations roles hand you a patch and a
rulebook, then quietly remove any
freedom to think for yourself. You
inherit
someone else's system, work inside
someone else's straight-jacket, and
spend your days feeding a head office
that has already made the decisions. If
that's what you're after, this isn't
it.
This is the number two seat in a
well-established, family-owned nursing
home group. The owner has spent twenty
years building something he's proud of,
and he's ready to hand full
responsibility for care provision
across the group to one person he can
trust to run it. That
person is genuinely in charge of the
quality, the standards, and the
direction of care. The autonomy here is
real, not a line in a job spec.
The
group runs a portfolio of nursing homes mainly
in the West Midlands, with a reputation
built on genuinely
warm, family-feel care rather than
corporate box-ticking. The strategy
isn't relentless acquisition; it's
keeping the quality of care high and
leading a group that already does
things well.
For
the right person, there's room to grow
into more over time. No promises, but
the ceiling is high and the door isn't
closed.
The non-negotiables
Operations experience across multiple
management
experience and the appetite to step up
A real
understanding of how nursing homes run
at this scale. You don't need to be a
nurse, but you do need to talk the talk
and know what good looks like
The maturity to hit the ground running.
This is an autonomous role and there's
no appetite to hand-hold
Warm and
friendly by default. Curious by nature.
Someone who is always turning over how
things could be done better, even
a little differently, and then actually
makes it happen
Living in the region,
or comfortably close, and happy to be
out among the homes. This role covers a
real geographic patch, so location and
a willingness to travel both matter
If
you've spent years inside a larger
group wishing you
had the freedom to lead your own way,
this is that freedom.
