This is your opportunity to make this first-class home a success from day one. In this role, you’ll be at the very forefront of that effort. You’ll be responsible for all sales activities for our care home, whether that’s talking to a prospect on the phone or giving a tour of the home. It’s a role that will see you engaging with both our residents and their relatives – giving them information and putting their minds to rest on everything from the quality of our facilities to the details about contracts.

You’ll also maintain the contacts database for your care home. ABOUT YOU you’ll need a track record in sales and marketing. A background in care homes would be an advantage but isn’t essential. What’s more important is that you have a flair for communication and a dynamic approach. We’re looking for someone who knows how to connect with all sorts of people and make compelling presentations (including to groups). You’ll also know how to market to – and build strong links with – the local community. Given the regular travel involved, a full UK driving licence is also required.
