🕒 50 hours per week over 5 days
We’re looking for a passionate and values-driven Deputy Manager to support the Registered Manager across a busy domiciliary and supported living service. This role is perfect for someone who thrives on responsibility, leads with compassion, and wants to make a real impact on the lives of the people we support.

• Strong leadership and communication skills
• Experience in domiciliary care, supported living, or a similar care environment
