Deputy Manager

Tenlands is a welcoming, 40-bed Residential and Dementia Care Home at the heart of the Ferryhill community, with a fantastic local reputation and a genuine family feel.

And there's never been a more exciting time to join us!

Recently refurbished – a refreshed, welcoming environment for our residents and team.

Rated GOOD in ALL areas by the CQC – a fantastic achievement that reflects the dedication and commitment of our team.

An established, stable staff team – passionate people who genuinely care about what they do.

Award-winning care provider – proudly owned by a locally and nationally recognised care organisation, committed to excellence while maintaining the warmth and personal touch of a family-run home.

Due to internal progression this role has become available. As our Deputy Manager, you'll play a key role in supporting the Home Manager, inspiring our team and ensuring our residents continue to receive exceptional, person-centred care.

This isn't just an office-based management role. We're looking for a visible, approachable and hands-on leader who enjoys being part of the team.

You'll work some clinical shifts alongside colleagues, using your experience to coach, mentor, develop and inspire our care team, leading by example and helping everyone reach their full potential.

You'll help us build on our recent successes, maintain our high standards and ensure Tenlands remains a home where residents feel valued, families feel reassured and staff feel proud to work.

We're looking for someone who brings:

• Proven experience in a senior care or Deputy Manager role.
• A genuine passion for delivering high-quality residential and dementia care.
• Strong leadership skills with the ability to motivate, coach and develop others.
• A sound understanding of CQC standards, safeguarding and care quality.
• A positive, supportive and approachable management style.
• A willingness to lead from the front and work alongside the team.
• Most importantly, a big heart, high standards and a belief that great care starts with great people!

Because we're not looking for someone to simply fill a management position.

We're looking for someone who wants to belong, make an impact and be part of something special.

You'll be joining a successful, well-regarded home with an established team, a supportive award-winning provider behind you and a genuine opportunity to influence the future of the service.

We believe that maintaining a family feel, valuing our staff and putting residents at the heart of every decision is what makes great care truly exceptional.
