Job description

Would you like to make a meaningful difference in the life of an older adult in your local community?

Maybe you've supported a loved one before, or worked in care but longed for more time to build genuine relationships. At Home Instead Bury, we do things differently. We provide person-centred, one-to-one care, allowing strong bonds to form between our Care Professionals and clients – right where they want to be: in the comfort of their own home.

Whether you're new to care or have previous experience, we offer award-winning training including specialist dementia and end of life care, both assured by City & Guilds.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Supporting with personal care (e.g. toileting, hygiene)
• Medication support
• Preparing meals and assisting with nutrition
• Light housekeeping and home support
• Offering companionship – from a friendly chat to outings and social activities

What We Offer

• Flexible, buildable hours to suit your availability
• Consistent clients and one-to-one care
• Paid, industry-recognised training and development
• Mileage allowance
• A supportive team who value and respect your role
• Opportunities for career progression in care

Availability

We provide care 7 days a week, so availability on alternate weekends is required.

If you're kind, compassionate, and looking to truly make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now or contact us on 0161 796 2988 for an informal chat.

Please note a car is essential to this role.
