Compass Associates Corporate Services division partners with rapidly expanding elderly care provider

As a leading name in the UK elderly care sector, Avery Healthcare underwent a transformational phase following the acquisition of multiple Signature Senior Living homes, expanding its portfolio from approximately 30 to 99 facilities. In response to this accelerated growth, the organisation sought to consolidate its internal functions to align with its expanded operational footprint.

Recognising the need for specialised support, Avery Healthcare partnered with Compass Associates, leveraging the firm’s expertise in elderly care recruitment, nursing care recruitment, and head office recruitment. The Compass Associates team was tasked with the critical challenge of bolstering senior leadership and strategic functions to support continued expansion.

Key placements made by Compass Associates included an IT Director to oversee digital infrastructure across the enlarged estate, a Head of Sales and Sales Director to drive occupancy across newly acquired homes, and a Head of Learning & Development to professionalise internal training capabilities. These hires were instrumental in ensuring the seamless integration of new services and boosting commercial performance.

By drawing on their in-depth knowledge of residential care recruitment and their strong network within the elderly care sector, Compass Associates successfully delivered high-calibre candidates who were aligned with Avery’s growth ambitions and cultural ethos. This partnership continues to be a benchmark for effective Compass Associates Corporate Services support in complex, post-acquisition environments.
