Job description

Deputy Manager (Nurse Qualified)

Gwynedd, North Wales Coast

Not every nurse wants to become a manager.

Some want to become better at leading.

This role exists for that reason.

It sits within a dementia specialist nursing service that values calm clinical judgement, steady leadership and relationships built over time. A new Home Manager has recently stepped into post, bringing warmth, openness and a genuine belief that good leadership starts with how people are treated day to day. The next step is finding a Deputy who wants to stand alongside that, not underneath it.

You’ll still use your nursing skills here. Regularly. Meaningfully. This is not a desk role in disguise. Your presence matters on the floor, in handovers, and in the moments where clinical decisions carry weight.

For Senior Nurses or Clinical Leads who are already mentoring others, leading shifts, shaping care standards and being relied upon when things feel complex, much of this role will already feel familiar. The difference is having the space, support and title to do it properly.

You’ll support nurses and care staff who want guidance rather than oversight. You’ll be trusted with care planning, medication governance and clinical risk, and you’ll step in confidently when leadership is needed because it makes sense, not because it’s your turn.

This isn’t a stepping‑stone role dressed up as progression.

It’s a partnership.

Joining a leadership team while it’s still forming is rare. Standards are high, but the tone is being set now. Culture is being shaped now. The right Deputy will have a voice, not just responsibilities.

You’ll need to be NMC registered, with experience in older people’s or dementia care. You’ll need to be the kind of nurse colleagues naturally turn to. What you won’t need is bravado.

The salary sits at between £40k to £45k. Support is real. Development is encouraged. And the pace allows you to lead without losing the clinical identity that brought you into nursing in the first place.

If you’re quietly curious, that’s usually the right place to start.

Confidential conversations welcomed.
