  • Good understanding of the regulatory frameworks and governing bodies that oversee care homes across the UK.
  • Strong time management and planning skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and meet deadlines.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to engage effectively at all levels of the organisation.
