Registered Manager - Brand New Children's LD Service - Up to £60,000
Location: Preston
Contract Type: Full-time / Permanent
Salary: Up to £60,000 per annum (DOE)

My client is launching a brand new supported living service in the picturesque village outside of Preston - and we're looking for an experienced, values-led Registered Manager (or a Deputy Manager ready to step up) to lead it from the ground up.

This is a rare opportunity to take full ownership of a calm, settled and small-scale service - without the pressures of high-risk behaviours or large team dynamics.

What makes this service different?

You'll be leading a warm, low-intensity setting supporting just three well-behaved children all with learning disabilities.
There are no challenging behaviours, giving you the space to focus on quality care and genuine relationship-building, rather than crisis management.

This is ideal for someone who thrives in a structured, person-centred environment - where progress is measured in meaningful, everyday moments.
