Operations Manager Nursing Homes Worcestershire Up to 80,000
Most operations roles hand you a patch and a rulebook, then quietly remove any freedom to think for yourself. You inherit someone else's system, work inside someone else's straight-jacket, and spend your days feeding a head office that has already made the decisions. If that's what you're after, this isn't it.
This is the number two seat in a well-established, family-owned nursing home group. The owner has spent twenty years building something he's proud of, and he's ready to hand full responsibility for care provision across the group to one person he can trust to run it. That person is genuinely in charge of the quality, the standards, and the direction of care. The autonomy here is real, not a line in a job spec.
The group runs a portfolio of nursing homes mainly in the West Midlands, with a reputation built on genuinely warm, family-feel care rather than corporate box-ticking. The strategy isn't relentless acquisition; it's keeping the quality of care high and leading a group that already does things well.
For the right person, there's room to grow into more over time. No promises, but the ceiling is high and the door isn't closed.
The non-negotiables
If you've spent years inside a larger group wishing you had the freedom to lead your own way, this is that freedom.
