About The Role

In your role as an Activities Co-ordinator at HC-One, kindness will be at the core of everything you do. It influences every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Every person working here understands that our Residents are individuals with their own stories, just like them. Joining HC-One offers a wonderful opportunity to give back to these individuals.

As an Activities Co-ordinator, your responsibilities include planning and implementing activities that delight our Residents, assisting the Home Manager with organising fundraising events, and encouraging Residents to socialise and explore new hobbies. You will involve the care team to foster a supportive environment, always guided by kindness.

We seek someone with experience working with vulnerable individuals, preferably with a background in developing activity programmes. Your positive energy, ability to connect with people, strong planning, organisational, and IT skills are essential. Effective time management and considerate communication with Residents and colleagues are also important.

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. You should be able to recognise signs of abuse, harm, or neglect, and know how to act appropriately. All staff will receive safeguarding training relevant to their role and additional training as needed. You should feel confident seeking advice and reporting concerns, including escalating issues if necessary.

We provide comprehensive training and support, offering a wide range of benefits to support your well-being and career development. These include:

• Competitive hourly rate based on experience and qualifications
• Paid Enhanced DBS/PVG check
• Free uniform
• Nutritious meals during shifts of eight hours or more
• Company pension scheme
• 28 days annual leave including bank holidays
• Group life assurance
• Wagestream for flexible pay access
• Learning and development opportunities, including qualifications
• GP online service for you and your children under 16
• Support from experienced colleagues within a dedicated team
• Access to over 1600 high street discounts
• Free Employee Assistance Programme for physical, mental, and financial support
• Recognition schemes such as ‘Kindness in Care’ and Long Service Awards
• Refer-a-friend scheme offering up to £1000 per successful referral

We are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where all colleagues can be their true selves. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds and aim for a quick onboarding process from offer to start date.
