Dementia Day Centre Manager

Lead with compassion. Deliver excellence in dementia care.

Age UK Enfield is a values‑led local charity supporting older people to live safe, independent and fulfilling lives.

We are looking for an experienced, compassionate and highly organised Dementia Day Centre Manager to lead our specialist Dementia Day Centre at the Mabel Churn Centre.

The Dementia Day Centre Manager is a pivotal leadership role for someone who combines a deep commitment to person‑centred dementia care with strong operational, safeguarding and people management skills. You will be responsible for ensuring the service is warm, inclusive and dignified for people living with dementia, while also being safe, well‑governed and inspection ready.

Key responsibilities:

• Lead a structured, therapeutic day service with engaging activities tailored to individual needs.
• Champion safe practice and compliance, including safeguarding, assessments and the Mental Capacity Act.
• Recruit, lead and develop a high-performing team, ensuring consistent staffing and service continuity.
• Drive quality and smooth operations—maintaining inspection-ready records and oversight of transport and catering (including on-call/deputising as required).

About you

We are looking for a centre manager who is values‑led, confident and organised, and who understands the balance between compassionate care and robust governance.

You will bring:

• A Level 3 (or above) Health & Social Care qualification (or equivalent experience).
• Strong knowledge of dementia care best practice, safeguarding adults, and CQC Fundamental Standards (including MCA/DoLS).
• Proven experience leading staff and volunteers in a care or community setting.
• Confidence in assessment, person‑centred care planning, risk management and record keeping.
• Excellent IT skills and a clear commitment to maintaining accurate, inspection‑ready records.
• A genuine commitment to equality, dignity, inclusion and person‑centred practice.

Management and dementia‑specific qualifications, and experience overseeing transport or catering services, are desirable but not essential.

Why work with us?

At Age UK Enfield, we are proud to be:

• Values‑led: compassion, dignity and inclusion sit at the heart of everything we do.
• Supportive: we invest in our staff and believe strong leadership creates great care.
• Purpose driven: every role contributes directly to improving the lives of older people in our community.

If you are passionate about dementia care and ready to lead a high‑quality, inspection‑ready service where people truly matter, we would love to hear from you.

Closing date for applications: 3rd May 2026

Interviews will take place on 13th and 14th May 2026.

Plus £3,062 Inner London Weighting (if office-based) or £384 (if home-working)
Permanent contract

Make a real impact on the people who support families across the UK. As our new Deputy Head of HR (Operations & Systems), you’ll shape high‑quality HR services and drive improvements that help our teams thrive.
This is a rare opportunity to lead a newly created function, modernise systems and processes, and strengthen our organisation for the future.

We are flexible about hours and where this role is based. You can work from our London office (N1) with hybrid working or from home. Home-based staff ideally travel to London once a month, but this is desirable rather than essential.

About Family Action & the Role’s Impact

Family Action has supported people through challenge, change and crisis for over 150 years. We protect children, support young people and adults, and offer direct, practical help to families and communities nationwide.

We see first-hand the power of family to shape lives, for better or worse, so we speak up for the importance of family in national and local policymaking, amplify family voices and represent the changing needs of families in the UK today.

As our Deputy Head of HR, you will lead our HR Operations & Systems function, ensuring the delivery of efficient, high‑quality HR services. You’ll oversee and continuously improve core HR processes, systems (including iTrent) and our Payroll relationship. This role blends hands‑on operational leadership with the strategic insight needed to strengthen governance, streamline processes and build overall effectiveness.

If you have significant experience leading HR Operations, Shared Services or HR Systems teams, we would love to hear from you. Your ability to optimise systems and processes, deliver through others and translate operational insight into strategic improvement will make you a strong candidate.

We Want You to Apply — Even If You Don’t Meet Every Requirement

Family Action is a supportive, inclusive employer. If you’re unsure about applying because you don’t meet every point on the Person Specification, please do apply — we value your skills, experience and values, not just checkboxes.

People‑focused, can‑do, excellence and mutual respect aren’t just words for us – they guide every decision we make. If these values inspire you too, you’ll thrive here.

Benefits:

• 30 days’ annual leave (pro rata) plus bank holidays
• Up to 6% matched pension contributions
• Flexible working options from day one
• Enhanced paid sick leave and paid family leave
• Eye care and flu-jab vouchers
• Cycle to Work scheme
• Ongoing professional development and high-quality training

Closing Date: Wednesday 29 April 2026 at 23:59
(We may close early if we find a strong candidate, so early applications are encouraged.)

All appointments are subject to satisfactory Safer Recruitment checks.

Our Commitment to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

We welcome applications from all sections of the community and will make reasonable adjustments during the recruitment process and in the workplace. We particularly welcome applications from ethnically diverse communities, LGBTQIA+ candidates and candidates with disabilities as part of our commitment to increasing representation.

Candidates with a disability may apply under the Disability Confident Scheme for priority consideration if they meet the essential criteria.

We will reimburse reasonable travel costs for in‑person interviews.

Family Action typically appoints new starters at the starting point of the salary scale unless experience or exceptional circumstances justify a higher starting point.

We are ideally looking for someone who can join as soon as possible, but this is not essential — please apply regardless of your notice period.

OUR VISION & VALUES

Our vision, from the start, has been to provide the structure and services needed for our schools to amount to more than the sum of their parts, and to free-up our teachers and leaders to focus on one thing and one thing only: the outstanding education of all their pupils.

Our core mission has always been to close the educational gap between young people from disadvantaged backgrounds and their peers. Our ambition is one where every child in London, no matter their background, has equal access to high quality education, giving them the same opportunities and potential to succeed.

We know there are many challenges facing our young people and the communities we serve, and that’s why we need determined people like you to help us tackle those inequalities. Whilst each of our academies has their own unique cultures and values; as a whole Federation, we have four core values which are central to successfully achieving our vision: Excellence, Collaboration, Support, and Innovation. We are proud of our values because they guide us in how we work allowing us to achieve the best possible outcomes for our young people, communities, and colleagues.
