Registered Manager — Learning Disabilities & Autism Leicester · £55,000–£60,000 + benefits
The best support doesn't happen in a care plan. It happens in the small, daily moments where someone is genuinely seen. If that's the kind of service you want to lead, this one's worth a look.
It's a specialist provider supporting adults with learning disabilities and autism, looking for a Registered Manager who leads with more than a checklist. You'll take the registration and day-to-day running of a residential service, but the real job is bigger than that: building a team culture where people are supported to live the life they choose, with dignity and independence at the centre of it.
If your experience spans both residential and supported living within this field, even better. It's an organisation that works across both, so a manager who understands how each model ticks, and how good support looks in either, will feel right at home and have room to grow.
You'll have the autonomy to run the service properly, backed by an organisation that's growing and takes its recruitment seriously enough to invest in getting this hire right. It's a place to put your stamp on something and stay, not a stopgap.
The non-negotiables
Experience as a Registered Manager, or a senior deputy ready to step up, in adult social care
A genuine background supporting adults with learning disabilities, autism, or behaviours that challenge, across residential and/or supported living
Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health & Social Care, or well on the way
Sound on safeguarding, CQC regulations and the Mental Capacity Act
The kind of leadership that builds a steady, motivated team rather than a revolving door
What's on the table
£55,000–£60,000 depending on experience, plus performance bonus
Real autonomy to lead the service your way
Genuine career growth as the organisation expands
Blue Light Card, pension, EAP and free parking
Monday to Friday core hours, with the flexibility the role needs
Send your CV, even if it's not bang up to date, or call for a confidential, no-pressure conversation. Everything is handled in complete confidence.

REGISTERED MANAGER Leicester | Residential Elderly Care | Up to £65,000
Most manager jobs hand you someone else's home and someone else's problems. This one hands you a home that already works, and asks you to make it yours.
A well-run Leicester care home is looking for its next Registered Manager. The current manager is moving on after a long and settled tenure, leaving behind a full home, a steady team and a good local name. This is a home where care is treated as a craft, not a line on a budget, and where the operator wants a commercially minded leader they can trust to keep it strong and take it further.
So this is not a rescue job. It's a handover. You inherit occupancy that's already there, people who already know their residents by name, and an operator who backs good managers rather than second-guessing them. Your job is to protect what's good, put your own stamp on it, and build from a position of strength.
The non-negotiables:
You're a current or recent Registered Manager in residential elderly care, comfortable with the realities of publicly funded services
You can show what good looks like: occupancy you've held or grown, ratings you've maintained or lifted, teams that stayed
You lead from the floor, know your residents by name, and run a home that is both warm and genuinely well run
What's on the table:
Up to £65,000 for a manager with a real, evidenced track record
The autonomy to run the home as though it were your own
A settled, high-occupancy service to lead from day one, not turn around
For a private, no-obligation chat about the home, the operator and the full package, call or message Tim, or send your CV, even if it isn't fully up to date.
Recruitment Panda Ltd is acting as an Employment Agency in relation to this vacancy. We are committed to equal opportunities and welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates regardless of race, sex, disability, religion, sexual orientation, or age.

Registered Manager (Nurse or Non-Nurse) — Residential & Dementia Care Lichfield / Staffordshire · £60,000–£70,000 + bonus
Most homes want a manager to keep things ticking over. This one wants a builder. It's already settled and well-run, with a loyal team and a strong local name, but it's not standing still, and neither should you.
It's a mid-sized, purpose-built home delivering residential and dementia care, set in its own grounds and within easy reach of the M42, M6 Toll and the wider motorway network. The kind of place where families know the staff by name and the staff actually stay. There are real plans to develop nursing provision here, so alongside protecting what's already good, you'll help lead the home into its next phase. A settled base and a proper challenge, in one.
You'll run the home with real independence, owning quality, compliance, staffing and culture, backed by a quality team and senior leadership who trust experienced managers to actually manage.
We're open to nurse and non-nurse managers alike. Given where the home is heading, having run a nursing home before, or holding an active NMC pin, will put you in a particularly strong position.
The non-negotiables
A solid track record as a Registered, Deputy or Acting Manager (3+ years leading a home or service)
Level 5 Diploma in Health & Social Care, or well on the way
A proper grip on CQC standards, and the evidence you've used them to lift a service rather than just survive an inspection
Confident with local authorities, families and multidisciplinary teams
The kind of leadership that makes good people want to stick around
What's on the table
£60,000–£70,000 + bonus, comfortably ahead of the local market
The chance to shape a home's move into nursing, not just hold the status quo
Autonomy that's real, not autonomy on a slide
Leadership and development behind you
A home you'll be proud to put your name to
