Ready to Lead, Inspire, and Change Young Lives?
Registered Manager – Children’s Residential Care
Holmfirth, Huddersfield (HD9)
At Madiba, we’re passionate about doing children’s residential care the right way. We’re a fast‑growing, values‑led provider of complex care across Yorkshire — and we’re on the lookout for an experienced Registered Manager to lead one of our multi‑occupancy Holmfirth homes.
This isn’t just about managing a service. It’s about building a culture, developing people, and creating a home where children feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for.
If you’re ambitious, compassionate, and ready to make a real difference, we’d love to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Doing
No two days are the same, but you’ll be:
- Leading, motivating, and developing a brilliant team of Team Leaders and Residential Support Workers
- Creating strong rotas, overseeing inductions, training, and performance (and doing it fairly and consistently)
- Making sure care plans, risk assessments, and safeguarding records are always up to scratch
- Managing budgets, staffing levels, and the smooth running of the home
- Working closely with senior leaders to achieve (and maintain!) Good or Outstanding OFSTED outcomes
- Most importantly — creating a nurturing, trauma‑informed environment where young people can truly thrive
What You’ll Bring
You’ll likely already have:
- Experience supervising staff in a multi‑occupancy children’s residential setting
- Previous experience as a Registered Manager (or similar role)
- Experience supporting children with Learning Disabilities and challenging behaviours
- Level 3/4 Diploma in Residential Childcare (or equivalent)
- Level 5 Diploma in Residential Childcare — or willingness to complete it within 2 years (we’ll fund it!)
- A full UK driving licence
- A calm, resilient, and consistent approach grounded in trauma‑informed care
- Flexibility to support the rota when needed (teamwork matters here)
