Carterwood continues to expand with the creation of two new roles leading to the appointment of Jane Thackray as HR & facilities manager, and Anne Jenkins as HR & communications assistant.
We have seen strong year-on-year growth since our inception in 2008. This year alone, we anticipate growth of 35%, and have recruited six additional team members, taking our total headcount to 21.
Carterwood co-founder and director, Amanda Nurse, comments: “We’ve created these new roles to prepare and support the business in its continued expansion. Jane brings a wealth of experience in the social care sector and previously spent five years as head of HR & training at Newcastle-based charity, Dementia Care. Jane’s role at Carterwood sees her responsible for employee relations, HR and training strategy, recruitment, performance management and ensuring a safe, comfortable and happy environment for our employees.
“Anne’s diverse experience, including six years with care developer, Castleoak, is invaluable as she takes on administrative duties for recruitment, induction and training, as well as various other admin responsibilities for colleagues, shareholders and consultants.”
