Registered Manager

GoodOaks Homecare is an award-winning, values-led homecare provider, supporting people to remain living well in the homes they love through high-quality, personalised care.

We are looking for a Registered Care Manager to lead the safe, compliant, and high-quality delivery of our service in Brentwood and the surrounding areas, working closely with the Franchise Owner to build a service we can be proud of.

This role is ideal for an experienced care professional who wants to focus on quality, leadership, and compliance , while contributing to the growth of a well-run, well-supported local service.

The role

As Registered Care Manager, you will be responsible for the day-to-day leadership of care delivery , ensuring that clients receive safe, person-centred care and that the service operates in full compliance with CQC and regulatory requirements.

You will lead and support the care team, oversee assessments and care planning, manage safeguarding and medication processes, and play a key role in shaping a positive, professional culture.

You will work closely with the Franchise Owner, who retains responsibility for overall commercial strategy and business growth.

Holding (or willing to work towards) a Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care

Why this role is different

This is not a “do everything forever” Registered Manager role.

From day one, this service is being built with clear priorities, realistic expectations, and long-term sustainability in mind.

As Registered Care Manager, your primary focus will be:

Quality of care

Regulatory compliance

Safeguarding and risk management

Leading and supporting a stable, well-trained team

You will work closely with a hands-on Franchise Owner who retains responsibility for overall commercial strategy and growth, so you are not expected to carry sales targets or drive expansion at the expense of care standards.

As the service grows, additional coordination and operational support will be introduced, allowing your role to evolve away from day-to-day firefighting and towards leadership, quality assurance, and continuous improvement.

If you want to build a service you can stand behind, lead a team you’re proud of, and work with an owner who understands what good care actually takes, this role will make sense to you.
