Barnardo's is looking for a compassionate, values driven Registered Manager to lead Jarvis House, a small, nurturing residential home supporting children at a time when safety, stability, and kindness matter most. Jarvis House supports up to three children through short to medium term placements, including emergency admissions when no suitable alternative is immediately available. It offers a therapeutic, trauma informed environment where children can begin to feel safer, happier, healthier, and more hopeful, and where they are supported to heal, grow, and thrive. This is not just about running a home. It's about creating a calm, structured space where relationships come first, experiences are understood with compassion, and children are supported to prepare for what comes next. What Jarvis House Offers Children Each child's time at Jarvis House is shaped by a sensitive, holistic assessment that helps us understand their experiences, strengths, and needs. Our team works closely with children to help them recover from trauma, build emotional resilience, and develop vital life skills. When children move on, whether to a foster family, a longer term placement, or back home, they do so with stronger foundations and greater confidence in themselves.

You're supported, challenged, and never expected to do it alone." What Children Tell Us Matters "I need people who don't leave when things get hard." "Feeling safe helps me think about what comes next." As Registered Manager, you will keep these voices at the centre of your leadership. What We're Looking For You'll be someone who: Has experience leading or managing within residential children's services Understands trauma, attachment, and emotionally informed care Holds (or is working towards) a Level 5 Leadership and Management qualification Leads with curiosity, compassion, and emotional resilience Believes that strong relationships are the foundation of great care Wants to make a genuine difference in children's lives Why Join Barnardo's? At Barnardo's, values are more than words on a page. They shape how we lead, how we support staff, and how we care for children. "I stay because the care is real, for the children and for us as staff." "We're encouraged to reflect, to learn, and to keep getting better." You'll be part of an organisation that invests in its people and believes that when staff feel supported, children thrive too. Pay & Reward Framework We know that our colleagues go above and beyond in delivering our vital work, driven by their passion and commitment to Barnardo's values . We also know that we can only realise our ambitions and achieve better outcomes for more children, thanks to the talent, hard work and creativity of our people.

This is a positive change for the charity, and a part of our People & Culture Strategy. It will assist us in supporting colleagues to belong, thrive and grow in their colleague journey at Barnardo's and in time will offer clear routes of progression for colleagues in both their career and their pay.
