The organisation is looking for someone who will bring ideas, challenge existing practices where appropriate and have a real impact on quality, team culture, resident experience and the overall performance of the home.
If this sounds like an opportunity that could be of interest, I would be happy to discuss the role with you confidentially and provide further information.
