About this role

Registered Manager

  • Children's Residential Home (EBD)

North West London | £55,000 - £65,000 + £5,000 Bonus

Build It Your Way.

Delphi Care Solutions is delighted to be partnering with a growing children's care provider to recruit a Registered Manager for a brand-new 2-bed EBD home in North West London.

Let's be honest.

Most Registered Manager jobs involve walking into someone else's problems.

This one doesn't.

This is a rare opportunity to open a brand-new home from scratch, recruit your own team, set your own standards and create the type of service you've always wanted to run.

From registration through to welcoming the first young person, you'll have the freedom to shape the culture, develop your team and build a home that genuinely changes lives.

If you've ever said "I'd do things differently if it was my home" , this is your chance.

What's on Offer?

  • £55,000 - £65,000 salary
  • £5,000 bonus following the first placement after registration
  • Brand-new 2-bed EBD home
  • The opportunity to build your own team
  • Strong support from an experienced leadership team
  • A genuine voice in how the service develops
  • Long-term progression as the organisation grows
  • The chance to make a visible impact from day one

What You'll Be Doing

  • You'll lead every aspect of the home's journey from registration through to a successful and thriving service.
  • This includes:
  • Securing Ofsted registration
  • Recruiting and developing a high-quality staff team
  • Creating a safe, nurturing and structured environment for young people
  • Building relationships with local authorities and commissioners
  • Driving occupancy
  • Ensuring outstanding safeguarding standards
  • Managing budgets, staffing and overall performance
  • Leading the home towards a Good or Outstanding Ofsted rating
  • Who we're Looking For
  • You may already be a Registered Manager looking for a fresh challenge.
  • Or you could be an experienced Deputy Manager who knows they're ready for their first registration.
  • Either way, you'll need:
  • Level 5 Leadership & Management for Residential Childcare (or be close to completion)
  • Strong knowledge of Children's Homes Regulations and Quality Standards
  • Experience supporting young people with EBD
  • A proven ability to lead and develop teams
  • Excellent safeguarding knowledge
  • Ambition, resilience and a genuine passion for achieving positive outcomes
  • The Bottom Line
  • Opportunities like this don't come around often.
  • This is your chance to put your own stamp on a home, build a team around your values and create something you can be genuinely proud of.
  • For a confidential discussion, contact Delphi Care Solutions today.
