Registered General Manager – Nursing Home; NMC Registered

Registered General Manager | Iden Manor Nursing Home

Lead Iden Manor with us, not simply for us.

We’re looking for an experienced Registered Manager who wants a real voice in the home they lead.

You’ll take responsibility for a successful 51-bed nursing home with strong occupancy, an established team and a reputation built over many years. But we’re not recruiting someone simply to maintain what is already here.

We want your ideas, your experience and your judgement.

You’ll have the freedom to shape and strengthen the team around you, influence how we invest and work directly with our leadership team to decide where Iden Manor goes next.

Our ambition is a good life in later years, with clinical excellence and person-led care at its heart, alongside hospitality, wellbeing, innovation and strong connections with our community.

If you are an experienced Registered Manager who still has the ambition to make things better, rather than simply keep things running, this could be an interesting next move.

• Clinical quality, governance and CQC compliance
• Leadership, culture and development of the team
• Resident and family experience
• Occupancy, referrals and commercial performance
• Quality improvement and inspection readiness
• Innovation and the effective use of technology
• Community and professional relationships
• The continued development of Iden Manor’s person-led, hospitality-focused approach

You’ll have the authority to make decisions, develop your management team and turn good ideas into action, with direct access to the Hoama leadership team.

• Active UK NMC registration as a Registered Nurse
• Proven experience as a Registered Manager of a UK nursing home
• Strong knowledge of CQC regulation and clinical governance
• A track record of leading, developing and holding teams accountable
• Experience of maintaining and improving care quality and regulatory standards
• Confidence managing occupancy, referrals, budgets and operational performance
• Sound judgement and the confidence to make decisions

Beyond that, we’re interested in how you think.

Bring us your ideas. Tell us what you would change. Challenge us when you think there is a better way.

We want a Registered Manager who wants to have an influence on the home they lead and the freedom to make a difference.

• 20% performance bonus, worth up to £15,000
• New starter bonus
• Wellbeing Hub and counselling services
• CPD and career development
• Professional registration fees reimbursed
• Clinical autonomy and decision-making authority
• Direct access to the leadership team

The position is permanent and full-time, based at Iden Manor Nursing Home in Staplehurst, Kent, with participation in the home’s shared on-call rota.
