Indiranagar, Bangalore
We are Care ADHD, and we are coming to India
We are one of the largest specialist ADHD providers in the United Kingdom. We were built inside the NHS system,
we are regulated by the Care Quality Commission, and we support tens of thousands of patients. We know what world class neurodevelopmental care looks like because we deliver it every single day.
And now we are bringing it to India. Not a call centre. Not a back office. A real specialist clinic, in Indiranagar,
staffed by brilliant Indian psychiatrists and psychologists, delivering assessment and treatment to the same clinical standard we hold ourselves to in the UK.
Here is why this matters. There are millions of adults in India with ADHD who have never had a name for the way their mind works. Many have spent their whole lives being told they are lazy, careless or not trying hard enough.
Stigma around ADHD and autism stops people seeking help, and when they do seek help, specialist care is very hard to find. We think that is wrong, and we intend to do something about it.
Our mission is to unlock potential. Every assessment we deliver is a person finally getting an accurate explanation of themselves. Every treatment plan is someone getting their life back. And every open, honest conversation about ADHD and autism chips away at a stigma that should never have existed in the first place.
The Indiranagar clinic is our first site in India. You would be running it. No pressure.

2. The role, in plain terms Care Neurodiversity India Private Limited |
Clinic Manager, Indiranagar | v1.0
You own the running of the Indiranagar clinic. Everything that happens around the clinical encounter, from the moment a patient first gets in touch to the point where they are settled on treatment and coming back for annual review, is yours.
The job exists so that our clinicians can do clinical work and absolutely nothing else. If a psychiatrist is chasing an invoice, fixing a rota or apologising for a late running clinic, you have a problem to solve.
This is a build role. You will open the clinic, set the operating rhythm and write down how everything works,
because what you build in Indiranagar is what we will replicate in the next city, and the one after that. We are hiring for capability, not capacity. We want someone who can run one clinic brilliantly and then help us open the next three.
What this role is The operational owner of the clinic. The diary, the team, the patient experience, the building, the numbers. If it is not clinical, it is yours.
A leadership job. You will line manage the patient services team from day one and set the tone for the whole clinic.
A founding job. You will be one of the first people through the door, and the way you work will become the way we work.
A partnership job. You will work shoulder to shoulder with our Clinical Director, our Compliance department and our Finance department, and with UK colleagues who genuinely want you to succeed.
A mission job. You will spend your days making it easier for people with ADHD to get help, in a country where that is still far too hard.
What this role is not
It is not a clinical role. Diagnosis, prescribing and therapy decisions belong to the clinicians, always. You make their work possible. You never influence it.
It is not a caretaker role. There is no established machine to keep ticking over. If you want a clinic that already runs itself, this will frustrate you.
It is not a back office or shared services role. This is a patient facing clinic. You will see and hear the impact of your work in the waiting room every day.
It is not a solo compliance or finance role. Compliance owns the regulatory framework and Finance owns the numbers. You are their partner on the ground, not a one person substitute for either.
It is not a nine to five with everything defined. Some weeks will be messy. We will be honest about that now rather than surprise you later.

- You should apply if
You have run a clinic, hospital unit, diagnostic centre or something comparably operational, and you loved the days when everything ran on time.
You have opened something new, or you have always wanted to and never had the chance.
You believe patients deserve hospitality grade service and hospital grade safety at the same time, and you refuse to trade one for the other.
You are comfortable being the most organised person in the building.
You care about mental health and neurodiversity, and the idea of breaking stigma in India genuinely excites you.
And you probably should not apply if
You need a detailed playbook before you can act. We are writing the playbook. That is partly your job.
You see patient experience as a front desk function rather than the whole point.
You want to make clinical decisions. That door is closed and it stays closed.
You are looking for a role you can do quietly. This one comes with visibility, to the UK executive team and to the board.

Clinic Manager, Indiranagar | v1.0 Where you fit, in one picture
Solid teal lines are reporting lines. Dotted pink lines are partnerships. Psychologists report through the Clinical
Pathway Lead, and the Clinical Director holds overarching accountability for clinical quality across the whole clinical team. None of the clinical team reports to you and you do not report to them. You run the clinic together,
with clean lanes.
- How we work
Care ADHD exists to unlock potential. Our patients have often waited years, sometimes decades, for an accurate explanation of how their own mind works. The way you do this job matters as much as what you deliver.
Put the patient first when operational and commercial pressures pull in different directions, and escalate rather than absorb the tension silently.
Care Neurodiversity India Private Limited |
Clinic Manager, Indiranagar | v1.0
Tell the truth about performance, including when the numbers are poor. We would always rather hear a problem early.
Treat clinical judgement as the clinicians to make, and operational delivery as yours to own.
Write things down. An undocumented process cannot be replicated, audited or improved.
Hold a high standard consistently rather than an exceptional standard occasionally.
