Our bank contracts will give you flexibility over the days and hours you work. Tell us when you're available, and we'll look to give you shifts to fit.

You don't need experience in care to start your career with us; we recruit on values and transferable skills. We'll give you all the training you need to be an amazing Bank Support Practitioner.

• Have an empathetic and caring nature.
• Good observation skills.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• Confidence in using computers.
• Ability to work well in a team and independently.
• Good organisational skills.
