Operating in a regulated care environment, the role calls for someone adaptable and emotionally intelligent - able to build relationships, earn trust quickly, and provide practical, values-driven support to frontline leaders.

Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package. High-trust, values-led working culture. Career development opportunities and L&D ownership. Generous annual leave.
Travel Requirements: You’ll need to travel regularly across the North-West, so a valid driving licence and access to your own vehicle is essential.
