Job Introduction

We’re looking for a Nurse Care Manager to join our leadership team at our luxury care and nursing home in Reigate. You’ll oversee residential and nursing care, manage and develop a team of Care Supervisors and Assistants, and ensure our residents receive the outstanding care they deserve.

Your Role at Signature

At Signature Senior Lifestyle, everything we do is built around our vision of delivering peace of mind. For our residents, that means the reassurance of exceptional care and the opportunity to live a safe, fulfilled life. For families, it’s the comfort of knowing their loved ones are supported with kindness and dignity. And for our team, it means being part of a culture where training, development and career progression are not just encouraged but expected.

This is a highly visible, hands-on role where you’ll combine clinical expertise with strong leadership to support residents, empower your team, and ensure outstanding care in line with CQC standards. You’ll also play a vital role in the resident journey – from initial assessment and move-in to the ongoing review of individual care plans.

Key responsibilities include:

• Leading and supporting your care team, providing clear direction, mentoring, and performance management.
• Acting as an advocate for residents, ensuring their rights, dignity, and best interests are always upheld.
• Overseeing safe and effective medication management, audits, and GP liaison.
• Supporting clinical governance through audits, action plans, and regulatory compliance.
• Handling safeguarding, concerns, and complaints in a professional and compassionate manner.
• Working collaboratively with colleagues across the home to create a warm, positive, and person-centred environment.

What we’re looking for

We’re looking for a qualified and registered Nurse (RGN) with current NMC registration, who can bring both clinical expertise and proven leadership experience within elderly care or a similar environment.

You’ll be:

• A strong leader with the ability to motivate, mentor and develop teams.
• Highly organised, with the ability to prioritise, make decisions and stay calm under pressure.
• Compassionate and approachable, with excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• Knowledgeable in CQC requirements and compliance, with a good understanding of safe practice and quality standards.
• IT-literate, confident in using care planning systems, and committed to continuous improvement.

Above all, you’ll be kind, empathetic and genuinely passionate about delivering person-centred care.

About Signature * Competitive salary with annual review * Generous benefits package including pension and life assurance * Free meals on shift * Career development and training opportunities to support your professional growth * A supportive, friendly team environment in one of the UK’s leading luxury care providers * Uniform provided
