Registered Manager – Brand New Children’s Home

Cambridge area

£53,000 base + up to £7,800 in achievable bonuses

£3,000 annual travel allowance or company car

Be the first to lead a brand-new children’s home — and make your mark from day one.

We’re proud to partner with a market-leading children’s residential care provider to recruit an experienced, passionate, and forward-thinking Registered Manager for a brand-new 4-bed EBD home in Cambridge area.

With the home awaiting Ofsted registration, this is a rare and exciting opportunity to build the culture, shape the care model, and set the standard for what outstanding care looks like — right from the start.

Why This Role Stands Out:

£53,000 base salary – negotiable depending on experience

Performance bonuses of up to £7,800 annually

Includes £400/month occupancy bonus when the home is full

Ofsted bonus for achieving “Good” or “Outstanding”

32 days annual leave, increasing annually for the first 3 years

Choice of £3,000 travel allowance or company car

Full support from a trusted, established organisation known for high-quality care and compliance

What You’ll Bring:

Experience as a Registered Manager or readiness to become Ofsted registered

A deep understanding of safeguarding, compliance, and care standards

Proven leadership skills in a children’s residential EBD setting

A vision for building a safe, supportive, and nurturing home for young people

Passion, resilience, and a strong commitment to delivering life-changing outcomes

About the Home:

4-Bed EBD children’s home in a peaceful location

Backed by a provider with a proven track record of high Ofsted ratings

A brand-new project — no legacy issues, no inherited culture — just a blank canvas ready for you to lead

This isn’t just another job. It’s a unique chance to create something meaningful from the ground up — and lead a team that puts children first.

Apply now and be the leader who builds a brighter future for every child who walks through the door.
