Job Description
Up to £42,000 DOE + bonus + £75 per week on-call allowance | Permanent, full time, office based
Are you a care manager who knows Oxford — the streets, the community, the local healthcare network — and wants a branch you can genuinely put your stamp on?
We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established, privately funded home care provider for a Branch Care Manager to take the lead at their Oxford branch. This is a smaller, established branch with real room to grow, and the successful manager will have the backing of a national support structure to do exactly that.
This is a leadership role, not an admin one. You'll hold the CQC registration for the branch, lead a small office team, and be accountable for both the quality of care delivered and the commercial performance of the branch.
What you'll be doing
Leading and developing your branch team — typically a Care Coordinator and Field Care Supervisor, plus your carer team
Holding the registration for the location and driving a genuine 100% compliance culture
Preparing for and performing well at CQC inspection
Growing care hours sustainably and profitably through new customer acquisition and developing existing packages
Building relationships across the local community — GPs, district nurses, discharge teams, safeguarding, community groups
Managing the branch budget, KPIs and business performance
Taking part in the branch on-call rota
What you'll need
Proven management experience in domiciliary care (registered manager experience preferred, but a strong care management background will be considered)
A good working knowledge of Oxford and the surrounding area, and the local healthcare and community landscape
Solid CQC knowledge and experience of inspection preparation
Commercial awareness — you can grow a branch without compromising care quality
Strong people management: recruitment, retention, development, performance
Resilience, initiative and a solutions-focused approach
A full driving licence valid for use in the UK and access to a vehicle (or the ability to travel reliably across the branch area)
The right to work in the UK
What's on offer
Base salary up to £42,000, dependent on experience
Bonus scheme (non-guaranteed) on top of base
£75 per week on-call allowance when you're on the rota
Central support from dedicated recruitment, marketing and compliance teams
A private-pay client base — no local authority contracts
A two-stage interview process: first with the Area Care Manager, second with the Head of Operations
Please note: salary is based on experience and is not guaranteed at the maximum level. Bonus is not guaranteed. Full details will be discussed at interview.
