Salary: £48,000 – £53,000 per annum, plus car allowance and bonus opportunity

Hours: Full-time, Monday to Friday

At Apollo Home Healthcare, every visit we make is to somebody's home – so getting the care right matters to us, deeply. We're looking for an NMC-registered Clinical Lead who feels the same way: someone with the experience and heart to help our clinical teams deliver safe, compassionate complex clinical care, day in and day out.

You'll be based at one of our branches in Doncaster, Peterborough or Croydon, working closely with our Head of Clinical Services and stepping in for them when needed. It's a role with real influence – over the standards we hold, the people we support, and the nurses and carers who support them.

We welcome applicants from Adult, Paediatric, Learning Disability and Mental Health nursing backgrounds.

About Apollo Home Healthcare:

We deliver high-quality, person-centred complex clinical home healthcare, guided by the 6 Cs: Care, Compassion, Competence, Communication, Courage and Commitment. Every care package we build is shaped around the person receiving it.

What You'll be Doing:

This is a role where quality and compassion go hand in hand. Day to day, you'll be:

•    Gently but rigorously leading on clinical quality, audit and governance – making sure the care we give is always safe and always kind

•    Supporting our Clinical Nurse Specialists so they feel confident, valued and well-led

•    Championing safeguarding and risk awareness across our home healthcare services

•    Keeping senior leadership informed with clear, honest reporting on how our care is really doing

•    Helping bring our digital care planning to life in a way that supports, not replaces, good clinical judgement

•    Play a key role in recruiting skilled nursing professionals, whilst providing continued, training, mentoring and development across our nursing teams

What You'll Bring:

We're looking for someone experienced, but just as importantly, someone who leads with empathy:

•    A valid NMC Pin and 5 plus years' post-qualification experience

•    Genuine experience in clinical leadership or management

•    A solid grounding in clinical governance, audit, risk and safeguarding

•    The confidence to speak up for good care, even in difficult conversations

•    Comfort with digital systems and Excel

•    A full UK driving licence and a willingness to travel to be with your teams

Experience in complex or community care, or a relevant postgraduate qualification be beneficial, but not essential for this role.

What We Offer:

•    25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, and a birthday day off*

•    Bonus scheme

•    Generous annual car allowance

•    Loyalty rewards at 3 and 5 years*

•    Workplace pension, paid DBS and refer-a-friend scheme
