Head of Operations
Adam Hutchison is our Managing Director, having led the business since 2013 and has built Belmont Healthcare into a multi-faceted care group. His core responsibilities encompass strategic leadership, operational oversight, and responsibility for ensuring the delivery of high-quality care while maintaining financial sustainability and regulatory compliance. He brings a fresh entrepreneurial perspective to healthcare, combining his business acumen with a genuine passion for transforming social care.
Adam is recognised as an innovator in the sector, having received national recognition in 2019 for his outstanding contribution to social care. He serves as a trustee of the Care Workers Charity and is a published author of “Risk v Reward: The employee-employer conundrum” (2018). His collaborative leadership style emphasises supporting and developing teams, creating what he describes as a “supportive family environment” that prioritises both employee wellbeing and quality care delivery.
Outside of work, Adam enjoys spending time with his family and running around after his daughter. He is also a season ticket holder at Aston Villa and can often be found on the golf course or at the gym.
“What drives me every single day is witnessing the extraordinary care team and care environments we’ve created across our homes. At Belmont Healthcare, we don’t just provide care services – we are here to champion every individual’s unique care journey and support their families and communities we are connected to.”
As our Director of Care, Claire’s role includes supporting and developing our care teams and home managers to continuously improve and develop the care we provide, as well as listening to our residents and their families to develop our care environments and services. She is also responsible for supporting our strategy, working closely with Adam, Andy, and Deborah.
Claire started her care career working in occupational therapy, then moved over to social work as a practitioner before becoming a registered manager for various homes. Over the last 20 years, Claire has been an operations manager for a range of large operators and has also been a care mapper for Bradford University. Before joining Belmont Healthcare, she ran her own consultancy business, providing coaching, quality patient care support, advice on mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and a range of other services for the care sector.
Outside of work, Claire loves taking walks in the local forests near where she lives, as well as baking with a glass of red wine.
“Seeing the wow moments, however small they are, in someone’s day inspires and drives me. Talking to people who have lived incredible lives, and working with such amazing and caring people who all have the shared goal of improving the lives and supporting the entire care journey is a privilege.”
Deborah is our Quality Manager and is responsible for overseeing a range of functions, including audits of homes, quality Performance of the home, management of auxiliary services, and providing occupancy support. She is also our infection prevention and control lead, CQC engagement lead, and inspection support lead.
Before she joined the team at Belmont Healthcare, Deborah worked with children with learning disabilities in mainstream primary schools. She then made a career change and moved into the care sector, and has worked in homecare as a care assistant, team leader, unit manager, and has managed a nursing home for people living with distressed behaviours. Since 2014, Deborah has worked in senior operational roles and during that time has overseen as many as 12 homes (nursing & residential).
In her spare time, she enjoys gardening, catching up with friends, and spending time with her husband and daughter and their dogs.
“For me, it’s all about understanding people’s needs, providing exceptional care and support, and being able to encourage people, as much as possible, to receive the care that they want, fulfilling their wishes, and being that person to make them smile. Life is for living, so it’s about grasping every opportunity to make others feel valued, let them know they do matter, and that their wishes are important.”
Andy Williams is our Head of Operations and brings a wealth of operational expertise to the business. In his role, Andy focuses on optimising performance and helping us deliver the highest standards of care across all our homes. He also supports our home managers, helping them to drive efficiencies that enhance both resident outcomes, care delivery, and organisational growth. Andy works closely with Claire and our wider leadership team and plays a key role in embedding best practices, strengthening operational processes, and supporting the onboarding of future acquisitions.
