Dementia Lead
£32,000 to £37,000 per year (DOE)| 38.5 hours | 3 on-floor practice days + 2 supernumerary days
As Christmas approaches, lots of people start winding down… But this could be the perfect moment for you to quietly take a step forward.
Fewer applicants.
Faster decisions.
A chance to walk into January with a role that finally reflects your passion for dementia care.
A genuine “New Year, New Me” moment, but one that actually means something.
If you love dementia care, if you thrive on creativity, if you want your ideas to matter, this role may fit you more snugly than an elf in their Christmas tights.
Picture yourself in a dedicated dementia unit within a large, well-established nursing and dementia home.
Not as a manager.
Not as an activities coordinator.
But as the person who elevates dementia practice on the floor and inspires others to follow your lead.
Three days a week, you're hands-on with the staff, not micromanaging, but modelling meaningful, person-led interactions:
Turning wandering into purpose
Using knitting, baking, gardening or simple shared tasks as engagement
Redirecting task-orientated routines into moments of connection
Helping people feel safe, valued, occupied and understood
Two days a week, you step back from the floor and become the creative thinker:
Planning environmental changes
Developing Montessori-inspired ideas
Shaping routines that reduce distress
Reviewing what's working and adjusting it
Advising the leadership team on resources, equipment or set-ups that could transform the space
Coaching staff through new ways of working
You become the person who helps turn a standard dementia unit into one that genuinely feels different, calmer, more purposeful, more human.
This could be your role if you:
See the individual long before you see the dementia
Enjoy discovering who residents were, their jobs, hobbies, loves, mischiefs and using that to shape their days
Understand that people may “live” in different decades depending on how they feel that morning
Love explaining, teaching and showing others what good dementia care looks like
Get excited about turning a spare room into a gardening space or a sensory nook
Believe in Montessori principles, psychosocial approaches and non-institutional care
Want to influence culture, not just complete tasks
Prefer being hands-on, visible, present, and part of everyday life
This role gives you the space to create, shape, lead, and inspire without getting lost in paperwork or management meetings.
It's about purpose, not protocol. About people, not processes. About dementia care that feels alive, not institutional.
Background desired:
Strong dementia experience (care homes, community, day services, early-onset support, rapid response, etc.)
NVQ Level 3 or above preferred
You do not need to be a nurse, though RMNs with the right outlook are very welcome
Experience supporting individuals with distress or behaviours that challenge
Someone already able to work in the UK long-term (this role is not suited to sponsorship)
If you can already feel yourself imagining the space differently… If you're someone who never stops asking, “What would make this person feel valued today?” Then this could be the role where your ideas finally come to life.
