Job Description

About Us:

Anchor Care Group is a newly established children's residential care provider with ambitious plans to become a leader in the sector. While this will be our first children's home, our leadership team brings extensive experience from the wider care sector, including supporting individuals aged 18 to 65 with complex and distressed behaviours. We currently operate care homes across the country and consider it a privilege to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we support.

Building on our success in adult care, we are now expanding our focus to help nurture and develop young people under the age of 18--offering them the stability, guidance, and opportunities they need to thrive and succeed in life.

We recognise that our managers and team members are the heart of our success. Without your expertise, compassion, and commitment, our vision simply couldn't come to life. As the Registered Manager, you and your team will play a vital role in shaping each child's professional, emotional, and personal development.
