We have a fantastic opportunity for a Deputy Manager to support our friendly, motivated teams within our Stockton services at Milewood Healthcare.

About the role

We are enthusiastic about providing a high-quality and bespoke service to each of our service users, always putting those in our care at the heart of what we do.

To succeed in this position, you will need great communication and interpersonal skills so that you can form solid relationships with the Care Workers, service users and other colleagues.
Working within care means no two days are the same, and this role encompasses a range of tasks dependent on the service users needs.
This role will be subject to an enhanced DBS check against the barred list.
