Quality care starts with one child — and one leader who makes it happen.

Lead with purpose. Drive excellence. Transform lives.

Are you a passionate leader in children’s social care with a relentless focus on quality? Do you want to shape the future of residential services that change lives every day?

We're looking for an outstanding Quality Director to spearhead excellence across our portfolio of children’s homes. This is a unique opportunity to step into a pivotal, high-impact role where you'll lead strategy, strengthen compliance, and embed a culture of continuous improvement and safeguarding.

From audit oversight to coaching leadership teams, you’ll ensure our homes deliver exceptional care and consistently exceed regulatory standards. You’ll work closely with our CEO and operational leaders, championing innovation and best practice across a growing, values-led organisation.

This is a hybrid role with the expectation to travel to our Head Office in Penrith at least once a week.

What you’ll bring:

• Proven track record in quality leadership within children’s residential care
• Deep knowledge of Ofsted, Children’s Homes Regulations 2015, and safeguarding frameworks
• Confidence to influence, challenge and inspire at all levels
• Strategic mind, hands-on attitude, and a commitment to doing what’s right for children

If you're ready to take your career to the next level—and play a key part in helping children thrive—we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now and help shape a safer, stronger future for children across our services.
