Cera makes caring easier with Cera Tech

We’ve modernised homecare by developing technology that streamlines administrative tasks, improves outcomes and allows you to focus on what matters most — caring for our clients. Our predictive tools and risk alerts help our teams make informed decisions quickly, reducing hospital admissions and fall risks. You really can care better as part of our team.

Please note: this role is subject to a PVG check and you must have the right to work in the UK. We are an equal-opportunity employer, celebrating diversity and fostering an inclusive environment for all employees.

In Scotland, all care staff must register with the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC). You must maintain your registration and complete your annual renewal. You must also work towards your SVQ2, which Cera will fund; however, the SVQ registration fee is payable by the employee.
