​

A genuine opportunity to help lead an established, high-quality care home.

​

Bramley House is looking for an experienced and confident Assistant Manager to join our management team.

​

Part of the family-owned Bramley Care Group, Bramley House is a beautiful residential care home in Mere, providing high-quality, person-centred care for older people in a warm and genuinely homely environment.

​

This is an important role within the home. We are looking for someone who is ready to step beyond a traditional senior care position and work closely alongside our Registered Manager, taking an active role in the day-to-day leadership, quality and smooth running of Bramley House.

​

The role

As Assistant Manager, you will support the Registered Manager across all aspects of the home and be confident taking responsibility in their absence.

​

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting the day-to-day management and leadership of the home

• Providing visible leadership and support to the care team

• Maintaining high standards of person-centred care

• Supporting care planning, reviews and risk assessments

• Monitoring care delivery and completing quality and compliance audits

• Supporting safeguarding, medicines management and health & safety

• Helping to manage, supervise and develop staff

• Supporting recruitment, induction, supervision and performance management

• Assisting with resident assessments, admissions and enquiries

• Building positive relationships with residents, relatives and healthcare professionals

• Helping ensure the home remains fully compliant with CQC regulations and Bramley Care standards

• Taking responsibility for the home when the Registered Manager is absent

​​

Who we're looking for

We are particularly interested in someone who already has significant experience within residential care and is ready to take the next step in their management career.

​

You should be:

• An experienced senior carer, team leader, deputy or assistant manager within an older people's care setting

• Knowledgeable about CQC requirements and good governance

• Confident managing and supporting a team

• Organised, dependable and comfortable taking responsibility

• Able to identify problems and, importantly, follow them through to resolution

• A strong communicator with staff, residents, relatives and professionals

• Passionate about maintaining dignity, choice, independence and a genuinely homely environment

​​

A relevant Level 3 qualification is expected, with Level 4 or Level 5 desirable. We will support further professional development for the right person.

​

About Bramley House

Bramley House is not a large corporate care home. We are part of a small, established, family-run care group where the owners and senior management remain closely involved in our homes.

​

We believe good care comes from knowing our residents, supporting our staff properly and creating a home in which people genuinely enjoy living and working.

​

For the right person, this is an opportunity to become a key member of the management team, have real influence over how the home operates and develop their career within the wider Bramley Care Group.

​

Salary

£36,000 – £37,440 per annum, depending on experience and qualifications.

Full-time, permanent position.

​

If you are an experienced care professional looking for a management role where you can make a genuine difference to both residents and staff, we would be very pleased to hear from you.
