As Director of Nursing, you’ll have the opportunity to make a visible difference across the home.

Clinical care
Ensuring residents receive safe, high-quality and individualised care.
People
Developing, supporting and empowering the nursing and wider team in the home.
Quality
Leading clinical governance, quality improvement, audits and risk management.
Culture
Creating an environment where residents, families and employees feel valued and listened to.

The future

Why lead with Curam?
Lead with purpose
At Curam, we believe quality of care and quality of life go hand in hand.
As Director of Nursing, you’ll have the opportunity to influence both — creating an environment where residents feel safe, respected, valued and at home.
Lead with support
You won’t lead alone.
You’ll work alongside an experienced Assistant Director of Nursing, Clinical Nurse Managers and Department Heads, supported by the wider Curam leadership team across care quality, governance, HR, training, recruitment, operations and more.
Lead people
Great care starts with great people.
You’ll have the opportunity to develop your team, support professional growth and create a positive workplace culture where people can do their best work.
Lead change
Continuous improvement is part of the role.
You’ll have the opportunity to identify opportunities, implement improvements and help shape the future of care within the home.
Grow with Curam
