Rite Directions is an established and progressive company that has been providing care and accommodation to children and young people since 2008. We care for children and young people aged 8-18 and specialize in working with vulnerable children and young people with a range of behavioral and complex needs in a child-centered therapeutic approach to care. We have a record with our local authority partners for achieving regular good outcomes for those that we care for and support them to make real positive achievements.
We are looking to recruit an experienced registered manager to lead our home for children with learning disabilities to a high standard with positive Ofsted Ratings. We seek someone who shares our ethos, is passionate, innovative, and willing to go above and beyond to ensure that the children and young people in our care have an experience of childhood they can reflect upon and carry with them into adulthood.
The role involves responsibility for all aspects of the day-to-day running of the home.

You will be supported by our Responsible Individual and other senior managers in the recruitment of colleagues, implement and monitor care and relevant plans to meet the individual needs of our children and young people, ensuring that key life and independence skills are achieved in the enriching and positive environment we strive to create.
