A little bit about North West London…

Long before the famous Wembley arch existed, Wembley almost had a very different landmark.

In the 1890s, plans were made for a 366-metre steel tower at Wembley Park designed to rival the Eiffel Tower. Construction began, but the tower never made it beyond its first stage and was eventually demolished. It became known as “Watkin’s Folly”.

We quite like the lesson in that one: ambitious plans need the right foundations.

The same is true when opening or growing a children’s home. Recruiting the right Registered Manager and building a stable team around them can make the difference between ambitious plans on paper and a home that genuinely succeeds.

What recruitment looks like in North West London

North West London recruitment is driven by journey time rather than mileage. Brent, Harrow, Barnet, Wembley and neighbouring areas can look close on a map but feel very different at rush hour or around shift changes, so public transport, parking and working patterns all matter when building a candidate shortlist.
