This isn’t just another management role. It’s a once-in-a-career opportunity to shape and lead the opening of a brand-new 80-bed specialist complex care home in the heart of Lambeth.

About You
You’ll bring proven experience of commissioning or opening a new care service and the confidence to lead a large-scale project. You understand the complexities of specialist nursing, dementia, or complex care services, and you know what it takes to balance compliance with a warm, welcoming culture. Above all, you’re a leader who can inspire teams, instil confidence, and deliver results.
