Join a Leading Transformation in Social Care

At Lifeways, we are transforming the landscape of social care, putting quality at the heart of everything we do. As a Relief Service Manager, you will play a critical role in ensuring we maintain and exceed our standards while driving forward our commitment to compassionate, person-centred care.

With an unwavering focus on delivering exceptional care, Lifeways is at the forefront of innovation in social care services.

Impactful Leadership : Step into a dynamic role where you’ll provide leadership to services during pivotal times, ensuring continuity and high standards of care while managing multisite teams. If you are a Service Manager or a Residential Manager with aspirations to become an Area Manager or gain a peripatetic skillset - this is the role for you!

Career Flexibility : This is a home-based role, offering the flexibility of remote work, but will require travel across the regions, including occasional overnight stays during weekdays. All accommodation and travel expenses will be covered and planned in advance.

Quality-Focused Environment : As part of Lifeways’ transformation journey, you will contribute to our mission to be the provider of choice, focusing on delivering safe, effective care that not only meets but exceeds regulatory expectations.

Continuous Improvement : Be part of a culture that values innovation, feedback, and growth, where you will lead initiatives to improve service quality, compliance, and outcomes for the people we support.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide time-limited leadership and management across services experiencing prolonged absence of managers, ensuring seamless delivery of care.
  • Lead teams in delivering safe, effective, and person-centred support, driving quality improvement initiatives to meet and exceed CQC standards.
  • Promote a culture of continuous improvement, embedding Lifeways’ values and ensuring that all services under your leadership excel in care delivery.
  • Engage with external stakeholders, families, and health professionals to ensure the well-being and safety of the people

About You : You are an experienced Service Manager or Registered Manager with a proven track record of delivering high standards of care in social care settings. You are passionate about quality improvement and have the leadership skills necessary to inspire teams to deliver person-centred support.

  • Proven experience in leading multisite teams and managing complex services.
