Registered Manager

Working together to help Children, young people, and families to thrive.
Join Oxfordshire County Council on an exciting journey towards Delivering the Future Together. 

Our goal is to be an employer, partner, and place shaper of choice, and we’re seeking the right talent who can help us get there while embracing our value of ‘daring to do it differently' , as we continue to strive to do it better. 

We’ve got an ambitious road ahead, and we’re looking for passionate and experienced Registered Managers to help get us there. 

Play an integral role working alongside our dedicated team during this exciting time of growth as we open 4 new Children’s Homes in 2024, with the aim to enable more Oxfordshire children to remain in Oxfordshire when they become Children We Care For.

We have 3 exciting opportunities across the 4 brand new homes. 

Home 1 - Chinnor, east Oxfordshire (Small Home)
Home 2 - Sutton, west Oxfordshire (Small Home)
Home 3 - Enstone, north Oxfordshire (Mid/Long-Term Home)
Home 4 - East Hagbourne, south Oxfordshire (Mid/Long-Term Home)

Our existing homes are proudly rated Good or Outstanding by Ofsted.

This is a rare opportunity for you to make this role your own and to create a safe and nurturing environment where children can thrive, with the support from our leadership team to be creative and bold in how you bring our homes to life, as we continue to live into our value of daring to do it differently!
Learn more about our new children’s homes here and meet Claire Lewis, Service Manager to discover her vision, and the joy she shares for the children we work with.

We are building teams that can work collaboratively, find solutions and provide the love and care the children need. If this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you. Apply today!
