Zoe Cooper

What is your background prior to joining Radfield?

Before joining Radfield, I worked as Deputy Manager and later as Community Engagement and Recruitment Manager for Right at Home South Cheshire for three years. Prior to that, I spent four years with Archangel Care as a Care Coordinator within supported living settings, and I’ve also worked in nursing home environments. I’ve been part of the care sector for over 25 years, and during that time, I even ran two pubs while my children were young, which taught me a lot about people and community.

How has your background prepared you for your new role at Radfield?

Having worked in a wide range of roles across the care sector over the past 25 years, I’ve gained a strong understanding of what it takes to be a Registered Care Manager. My experience has given me valuable insight into the needs of both clients and care teams, helping me to lead with empathy and understanding.

What inspired you to become involved in the adult social care sector?

My inspiration came from personal experience. After my grandfather had a stroke, he was cared for at the Barony Hospital in Nantwich, and the compassion and dedication shown by the nurses really moved me. It inspired me to pursue a career in care so I could make a difference for others when they need support the most.

How do you feel your role and experience will benefit Radfield’s clients?

Having lived and worked in the local area for many years, I understand the community and what good quality care means to people. I’m passionate about ensuring every client receives the personalised, high-quality support they deserve, helping them remain comfortable, safe, and connected to what matters most to them.
