Registered Manager

Join St. Michael’s Fellowship at a pivotal moment of change.

St. Michael’s Fellowship is evolving.

We are reshaping our residential and outreach services into a fully integrated family assessment and support pathway, designed to provide high-quality, relationship-based work with families while delivering robust, evidence-informed assessments for courts and local authorities.

Our residential parenting assessments remain at the heart of what we do—but we are strengthening how we work:

· clearer professional roles

· stronger practice frameworks

· greater continuity for families

· a renewed focus on quality, reflection and impact

We are building a service that is:

· relational and trauma-informed

· analytically rigorous

· confident in its professional voice

This is an opportunity to be part of something purposeful, helping shape a service that makes a real difference in the lives of children and families.

Registered Manager – Residential

Salary range: £53,000-£55,000 (depending on experience)

Lead with clarity. Hold quality. Shape the service.

We are looking for a Registered Manager to provide strategic leadership and regulatory oversight of our Residential Family Assessment Centre.

This is not a traditional “hands-on shift management” role.

Instead, you will:

· hold overall responsibility for safeguarding, quality and compliance

· lead the service through Ofsted inspection and external scrutiny

· ensure assessments are robust, credible and child-focused

· provide leadership across a newly defined professional structure

You will work alongside a strong practice spine including:

· Assessing Social Workers (assessment lead)

· Practice Leads (day-to-day operations)

· Consultant Practitioner (practice quality)

This is a role for someone who:

· understands how to hold a system, not just manage a team

· can maintain oversight without losing grip on quality

· is confident in professional judgement and accountability

We’re looking for:

· strong knowledge of safeguarding and regulatory frameworks

· experience leading regulated services

· the ability to drive quality and performance

· calm, confident leadership
