Role Summary

HV Care Ltd is seeking an experienced and compliance-focused Responsible Individual (RI) to support the organisation’s registration and setup of a new children’s residential care home in Gravesend. This is a part-time consultancy-style engagement intended to support SC1/SC2 registration, provide early-stage governance, and ensure compliance with Ofsted and statutory regulations.

The role is ideal for a senior safeguarding or care professional who is looking to contribute to the founding stages of a high-quality children’s home and work closely with the Registered Provider and proposed Registered Manager. There is a strong opportunity for this role to transition into a Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) position once SC1 and SC2 registration is complete, subject to mutual agreement.

Key Responsibilities
• Act as the nominated Responsible Individual for Ofsted purposes under The Children’s Homes (England) Regulations 2015.
• Ensure full regulatory compliance during pre-registration, inspection preparation, and early operational phases.
• Support the Registered Provider and Registered Manager in embedding strong governance, safeguarding, and operational systems.
• Conduct monthly quality assurance visits, audits, and governance reports to ensure readiness for inspection and safe practice.
• Act as the lead liaison with Ofsted, social workers, and local authorities during registration and inspection.
• Contribute to the development of policies, Statement of Purpose, staff structures, training plans, and regulatory submissions.
• Promote a culture of continuous improvement, safety, and child-centred care from day one.

Person Specification

Essential:
• In-depth knowledge of the Children’s Homes (England) Regulations 2015 and Quality Standards.
• Proven experience as a Responsible Individual or Registered Manager in a children’s home.
• Strong understanding of safeguarding, Looked After Children (LAC) procedures, and regulatory compliance.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, including report writing and regulatory correspondence.
• Clear Enhanced DBS (Child Workforce).
• Availability to engage regularly (monthly) and flexibly in response to registration milestones.

Desirable:
• Level 5 Diploma in Leadership and Management for Residential Childcare (or equivalent).
• Experience working with children with Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties (EBD).
• Prior experience supporting a start-up or first-time Ofsted registration.

Engagement Structure
• Day rate of £250, benchmarked against a pro-rata FTE of £50,000/year.
• Engagement expected to be 1–2 days per month, with flexibility to increase during key milestones (e.g. inspection, launch).
• Post-registration: HV Care Ltd is open to offering a Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) position once SC1 and SC2 registration is complete and the home becomes operational.
