Support for registered managers

At the heart of every outstanding service is a manager who’s working hard to ensure that they can create a person-centred culture that delivers a high-quality service.

We support managers to do just that and we’re the membership organisation for registered managers in England.

Through our day-to-day work with managers, research and consultation activities, we understand and respond to the opportunities and challenges facing registered managers.

Whether you’re just starting out in your career, or are an experienced registered manager, we support you to develop your skills, knowledge and confidence to lead a well-led service.

Our work in 2018-2019

Supporting staff to move from one role to a higher level is important and succession planning should be a key element of any workforce plan. Take a look at our Aspiring Manager and New Registered Manager pilot programmes to see how we can help.

Alongside our work in 2018-2019 with aspiring and new managers we've published two briefings that share key messages from research with 860 registered managers. The briefings map the research findings to examples of the great work done by managers and their employers, as well as our support for registered managers.
