About Metta Lifestyles

At Metta Lifestyles, we are redefining what retirement living looks like.

As a growing Canadian company with exceptional retirement communities in Toronto and Ottawa, we are committed to creating environments where residents don't just live—they thrive. Our communities are built on hospitality, connection, and choice, providing residents with an elevated lifestyle focused on comfort, flexibility, wellness, and peace of mind.

At the heart of everything we do are our CARES values: Compassion, Accountability, Respect, Excellence, and Support. These values guide how we care for our residents, support our teams, and lead our communities.

As we continue to grow, we are seeking talented leaders who are passionate about creating exceptional resident experience and making a meaningful impact in the lives of seniors.

The Opportunity

We're seeking an organized, empathetic Manager of Care (MOC) who's ready to elevate the quality of life for our valued residents and provide support and guidance to our valued employees in one of our top-tier retirement homes in North York. If you're passionate about health and wellness, enjoy leading teams, and are looking for a meaningful role where you can make a difference every day, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

As our MOC, you'll provide leadership to our dedicated health and wellness team, guiding them to deliver the exceptional care our residents deserve. But you won't be confined to an office: you'll be at the heart of the action, getting to know our residents, implementing care plans, and lending a hand with care needs. You'll be instrumental in creating a caring and vibrant environment where residents thrive.

Your mission will extend beyond maintaining standards. You'll strive to elevate our care initiatives and programs to surpass regulatory and provincial standards. Your leadership will help us navigate through relevant legislation ensuring our care services are not just compliant, but truly top-notch.

This is more than a managerial role - it's an opportunity to influence the lives of our residents positively, engage with a passionate team, and contribute to a culture that values quality care and personal connection.



If you're an experienced leader ready to commit to the health and wellbeing of our residents, we want to hear from you.
