With a genuine passion for the older generation, we’re seeking someone who is sociable, creative, fun-loving and above all well-organised.

Experience of working in a care home is not a pre-requisite - we are simply looking for someone who sparkles and who enjoys having fun whilst making a real difference to our fabulous residents.

What You’ll Do

• Plan and Organize: Create and manage monthly rolling programmes as well as individual activities, encouraging residents to stay active and maintain their hobbies.
• Foster Social Connections: Help residents socialize and enjoy their time in the care home through diverse activities that cater to all preferences.
• Keep Accurate Records: Maintain detailed documentation of daily activities.

What You’ll Bring

• Event Planning Skills: Proven ability to develop and organize a range of engaging events and activities.
• Creativity and Confidence: A friendly, creative, and confident personality that shines through in your work.
• Passion for Elderly Care: A genuine interest in working with the elderly, helping them live life to the fullest.
• Communication and Teamwork: Strong communication and organizational skills with the ability to work well both independently and as part of a team.
