• Working closely with families, volunteers, and colleagues to ensure every resident feels valued, seen, and heard

What You’ll Bring

• A warm, caring personality and a genuine passion for making a difference
• Energy, imagination, and a knack for making people smile
• Experience in activity planning or recreation (and if you’ve got NVQ Level 2 in Health & Social Care, that’s a big plus!)

• Competitive pay
• FREE DBS check & uniform
