Job Description
Dual Registered Manager – Children’s Home (SEMH)
Location: Leicester
Salary: Up to £75,000 (depending on experience) + performance bonuses
Let’s be honest — you’re not looking for just another manager job.
You’re looking for somewhere you can build, shape, and inspire. A place where your ideas matter and your passion for helping young people with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs can truly shine.
Well… you’ve just found it.
My client is an established, child-centred organisation with three Ofsted-registered children’s homes already up and running, and two more due to open as part of their continued growth. Their ethos is simple — to provide nurturing, therapeutic homes where young people can heal, grow, and thrive.
You’ll be joining a genuinely supportive team led by child-centric directors and a Responsible Individual with a strong childcare background who truly understands the realities of running a home. They believe in empowering their managers, not micromanaging them.
This brand-new dual-registered home in Leicester is a blank canvas — and they’re looking for a confident, passionate leader to make it their own.
What you’ll be doing
* Leading two small SEMH homes under one registration
* Building and inspiring a team that shares your energy, values, and humour
* Creating a safe, nurturing, and trauma-informed environment
* Driving quality, compliance, and Ofsted excellence (you know the drill!)
* Collaborating closely with an experienced, supportive senior team
What’s in it for you
* Salary up to £70,000 plus performance-based bonuses
* Genuine autonomy — your voice and ideas matter here
* Support from a leadership team that understands children’s care
* Real career progression as the organisation continues to expand
* The chance to shape a home that truly changes lives
What you’ll bring
* Experience as a Registered or Deputy Manager in a children’s home
* Knowledge and passion for SEMH support and trauma-informed practice
* Level 5 Diploma in Leadership & Management (or working towards it)
* Strong leadership, warmth, and emotional intelligence
* A sense of fun, resilience, and a drive to make a real differenceBefore You Apply
