The role of a Sylvian Franchisee

Our business model is a ‘Management Franchise’. We do not expect you to personally provide the care. Instead, you’ll focus on recruiting and nurturing a skilled team, whilst you focus on driving growth through effective decision-making and planning.

As a Sylvian Care franchisee, your responsibilities will include:

  • Leadership: Oversee day-to-day operations, inspire your team, and maintain high-quality care standards.
  • Client Relations: Engage with clients and their families to ensure continued satisfaction.
  • Compliance: Ensure adherence to care regulator standards and requirements.         
  • Financial Oversight: Handle cash flow, invoicing, and maintain profitability.
  • Marketing: Foster community relationships and expand your client base.

While you’ll start off with a hands-on approach, you'll be able to delegate tasks as the business expands, giving you more time to focus on long-term growth.

“The biggest support we had, at the beginning, was in gaining clients and recruiting staff. Moving forward, we still have loads of support, like the Sylvian Academy. It is fantastic and makes a serious difference.” Sylvian Care Southampton

Caring for some of the most vulnerable individuals in our society is a huge responsibility. We are very proud of our brand and the reputation that we have built. As you would expect, we are seeking great individuals who share our values. To join Sylvian Care, you will need to be:

  • Willing to learn regulatory compliance
  • Able to follow a proven model and business structure
  • Ready to commit to Sylvian Care as a full-time venture
