How did you find your role at MMCG?

I saw an internal opportunity online where there was a home in Leeds that needed a Home manager, closer to where I live. I spoke to my Regional Director at the time and she advised me to apply which I did then I was set on an interview which I was successful. 

Since starting as Home Manager I have learnt to be more patient, resilient and my communication skills have got better as this role pushes you to engage with all different kinds of professionals across the business and external professionals too.

I have received tremendous support from different kind professionals to enhance both knowledge and wider experience.

"Willow Bank is a great home to work at. The staff are lovely and so welcoming full of passion and enthusiastic to develop both themselves and the home. They have a great sense of humour which is great to see."

Kwanele, Home Manager

What is the best thing about working at MMCG?

Just seeing the positive outcomes for the people we support is my favourite thing about working in the care sector. MMCG also helps us to support those that live with us to enhance their best quality of life whilst also offering a wide range of opportunities for their employees.

It’s the tiny things that really make a difference and seeing the reaction and joy on the Residents faces when for example you have just taken time to sit and chat to them, provided them with their favourite meal or decorated their room and put new furniture in.

Dan, Hospitality Manager

The most rewarding part of my careers so far with MMCG is when the team have a “light bulb” moment. I have been coaching the team to make improvements and so delighted when they come up with idea themselves and followed it though which was a huge brake-through moment with the team.
