Welcome Amanda Raine

iBC Healthcare Accelerates National Growth with New Appointment to Commercial Team

We’re excited to announce the appointment of Amanda Raine as our new Head of Business Development, marking the next chapter in iBC Healthcare’s national growth and development journey. This strategic role strengthens our commitment to delivering innovative, needs-led care solutions that align with national health and social care priorities.

Amanda brings with her decades of experience across health and social care business development and operations. With a strong track record of building sustainable partnerships with the NHS, local authorities, and private sector providers, Amanda’s appointment reflects our ambition to expand responsibly—creating future-ready services for individuals with complex needs, autism, learning disabilities, and those transitioning from hospitals and institutional settings into the community.

CEO Jenny Payne says:

“Amanda’s appointment comes at a pivotal time. As pressures on the health and care system intensify, we are expanding not just in size but in our ability to offer bespoke, person-led support models. Amanda brings a deep understanding of both the commissioning landscape and the human need behind the numbers.”

With over £50m of investment and a 57% compound annual growth rate over the past two years, we now support people across 90+ properties, maintaining over 90% occupancy and a 100% Good or Outstanding CQC rating across our services. We’ve recently launched several new state-of-the-art supported living environments and continue to lead on restraint reduction, thanks to our CPI-accredited in-house training and internal therapeutic support teams.

Amanda will be instrumental in identifying new partnership opportunities, shaping person-centred service pathways, and ensuring we remain a key delivery partner within the evolving integrated care system. She’ll be working closely with Integrated Care Boards, local authorities, and housing partners to co-develop solutions that reduce unnecessary hospital stays, promote independence, and deliver long-term social value.

In Amanda’s own words:

“I joined iBC because of their passion, pace, and purpose. I am incredibly excited to be appointed as Head of Business Development. This role is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to meaningful growth while championing my passion for delivering high-quality services that make a real difference. I’m looking forward to collaborating with the team to build strong partnerships and drive lasting impact in the communities we serve.”

As the adult social care sector continues to navigate increasing complexity and pressure, our approach remains rooted in balancing commercial strength with social purpose. Whether it’s through digital innovation, sustainable property design, or specialist workforce development, we’re committed to building scalable, high-quality solutions that work—today and for the future.

With Amanda now on board, we’re more confident than ever in our ability to deepen our impact across the UK—ensuring more people have access to the right support, at the right time, in the right way.
