We are looking to recruit a Deputy Service Manager (Nurse Qualified), to work within a small, well-established supported living service in Chorlton, Greater Manchester.  The service provides 24-hour support for adults living with enduring mental health needs, and supports 15 tenants aged between 18 and 75.

  • Participate in the shared on-call rota with the Registered Manager and Deputy Manager (must be able to attend site if required – therefore a driver is preferred).
  • Support the ongoing development of a new step-down service, helping tenants build independence and resilience.

The Ideal Candidate
  • Registered Nurse (RGN or RMN) with experience in mental health
  • Strong leadership and management skills, ideally with previous deputy or senior experience.
  • Knowledge of supported living frameworks, mental health conditions, and recovery-focused care.
  • Organised, approachable, and able to work collaboratively within a small team.
  • Flexible, and willing to share on-call duties as part of the management team.
  • A full driving licence is desirable due to occasional out-of-hours requirements.
What You Will Be Offered;
  • A supportive, close-knit working environment in a long-established service.
  • Opportunity to make a real impact in a small but growing organisation.
  • Annual salary of circa £38,000 - £40,000.
  • Monday–Friday working hours (circa 9am–5pm, flexible), with shared on-call duties.
  • Professional development and scope to contribute to service expansion.
