Delphi Care Solutions are delighted to be supporting an exciting new children's residential provider in the appointment of their founding Registered Manager. Opportunities like this rarely come to market. This is a chance to take the lead on a brand-new children's home, shape the culture from day one, recruit your own team, establish best practice, and create a service you can be genuinely proud of.

The home, located in Sheldon, Birmingham, will support up to three young people with Learning Disabilities (LD) and Emotional & Behavioural Difficulties (EBD) within a spacious four-bedroom setting designed to provide a safe, therapeutic, and nurturing environment. For the right person, this is far more than a Registered Manager position. It is an opportunity to build a service, influence future growth, and play a pivotal role in the development of an ambitious provider with long-term aspirations.

As the founding Registered Manager, you will be instrumental in leading the home through registration, recruitment, mobilisation, and ultimately occupancy. You will have the autonomy to build your team, implement high standards from the outset, and create a culture centred around positive outcomes for children and young people.
