Job Description:

We are looking for a community carer who is interested in the benefits of a salaried contract.

Hours to suit you, but must be based around our flexible shift patterns which are:

0800 - 1300 or 1700 - 2200

Weekend shifts - £70.00 plus mileage

You must have weekend availability every other weekend.

To apply for this position you must have:

• Full and valid UK driving licence
• Access to a car
• Right to work in the UK (we do not offer sponsorships or visa switches)

Roles and Responsibilities as a Care Assistant

• Administering medication
• Manual handling, using equipment where required
• Promoting customer health and well-being, enabling them to live their life to the full

Your Experience and Suitability for the Care Assistant Role

It’s not about previous experience. We want to ensure our customers receive the very best care, and to do that we need people who are naturally compassionate, caring, and patient. We want a team who genuinely cares for each of our customers as if they were their own family.

But don’t panic, we’ll ensure you have all the right training and development because we care for our Care Assistants. After all, they care for our customers, so it’s important that you feel equipped for the role.

Because We Care About You

We understand that every member of our team has their own family to care for, and this is why our role offers the flexibility to work around your own home life. You can choose between full-time or part-time work; all you have to do is simply tell us your availability. Although we try to be flexible where we can, we do require you to be flexible with us too, which is why we will require you to work some evenings and alternate weekends.

We can’t care for our customers if we don’t take care of our team, so to make this possible, we offer:

• Full training, induction, and a 12-week mentor
• Ongoing training and support
• Smartphone technology so you can do everything at the tap of a finger
