Let’s take an honest look at what it means to lead a children’s home. As Sophie, one of our Heads of Home, shares, it’s one of the most rewarding roles in social care.

We also recognise the demands of the role and understand that many experienced Registered Managers experience:

🔹 The pressure of inspections
🔹 The weight of accountability
🔹 The challenge of building and keeping strong teams

At Buckinghamshire Council, we offer clear leadership support when it matters most, alongside real investment in staffing and stability. You’ll be part of a culture where you feel supported every day.

Sophie talks about what it's like working as a Residential Manager: 'We work hard to create a normal, homely environment. We cook dinner, clean up together, and go out on activities – just like any other family.' Read her full blog here: https://shorturl.at/Jb0Zq

We’re opening two new homes in High Wycombe, and are currently recruiting for a Registered Manager (Head of Home) to join us. If you’re looking to lead with confidence, not just responsibility, we’d love to hear from you. Apply: https://ow.ly/nK8G50Z7uXC

This Carers Week, we’re sharing feedback from our Carers staff network on why these communities matter.

Staff networks bring voices together, creating safe spaces for employees to connect, share ideas, and support one another - often beyond what day-to-day work allows. This sense of community can significantly boost morale, confidence, and overall wellbeing at work.

💬 “Reading other colleagues’ experiences and advice has helped me put the issues my family and I are facing into perspective. Knowing we are not ‘alone’ has been very reassuring.”

💬 “The Carers staff network has helped me learn patience and how to handle both work and caring responsibilities… knowing there are others we can turn to makes life that little bit easier.”

💬 “We’re still early in our caring journey, but having this network to ask questions and receive support provides a sense of hope for the challenges ahead.”
