However, once established you will oversee all day-to-day operations, including team leadership, clinical care, gardens and property maintenance, and overall village performance.

  • Strong business and financial acumen with the ability to deliver operational goals.
  • Knowledge and experience with Village Management agreements and contracts, and ORA sales and property management principles.

  • Good knowledge of Health & Safety management and safe working practices.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
