The Old Rectory is a residential service, which is located in the village of Brede, in East Sussex. We support 15 males and females who are autistic or have a learning disability. The service is located in a semi-rural location, surrounded by beautiful countryside. This is a full-time role working 40 hours per week.

Our team are dedicated to promoting independence, equality, dignity and respect and as a team we are focused on building positive outcomes for everyone. We provide high quality, bespoke, meaningful activities for our residents both on site and in the community, tailored to meet their individual's needs.

• Lead the home with warmth, professionalism, and strong leadership, fostering a culture of care, respect, and inclusion.
• Manage budgets, resources, and operational processes to maintain high standards and achieve service success.
• Ensure the home meets all legal, statutory, and regulatory requirements, including CQC standards, health & safety, and licensing.

We're looking for a CQC Registered Home Manager who's passionate about people and driven by excellence in care.

You'll lead from the front, creating a safe, welcoming and empowering home where residents can thrive. With your leadership, your team will deliver outstanding, person-centred support that helps people build confidence, develop skills, and stay connected to their community.

At Priory, no two days are the same. You'll take full ownership of the home - from quality and compliance to budgets and performance - while keeping what matters most at the heart of everything you do, exceptional care and real outcomes for the people we support.

You'll have the opportunity to lead a passionate team, shape the future of our services, and make a meaningful difference in the lives of residents every day. This is a role for someone who thrives in a dynamic, rewarding environment where both leadership and compassion are valued.
