Job description

Salary: £13.76 per hour plus benefits

Job type: Permanent, 36 hours per week

The Royal Naval Benevolent Trust is a Royal Navy & Royal Marines charity that gives help, in cases of need, to serving and former Royal Naval ratings and Royal Marines other ranks. We also help their partners, children and some others connected with them. The RNBT has a ‘family-run’ feel and we have carefully created a supportive, friendly and close-knit team making it a unique and very special place to work.

Admiral Jellicoe House is a purpose-built 66 bed care home in Portsmouth for veterans and spouses of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines which opened in June 2022. Our residents and staff enjoy a varied yet familiar way of life to encourage independence and give each day meaning and purpose.

Working with Meaningful Care Matters we have started to adopt the Butterfly Approach to care, where we are one family at Admiral Jellicoe House.

Can you make someone feel special? Will you turn the radio up and put on your dancing shoes? Looking for a caring role where it is about the person and not the tasks?

We have a very different approach to delivering care and are now recruiting for Night Carers to join our team.

We are one family; we wear our own clothes and recognise the contribution that every single one of our team can make.

Key responsibilities will include but not be limited to:

• Offering support and companionship to our residents
• Providing personal care
• Supporting mealtimes and ensuring our residents enjoy a nutritious, balanced diet
• Liaising with relatives and enhancing the quality of life of our residents
• Administering medication
• Working effectively within a team

The full job description is available on request.

This role would suit a highly organised individual, preferably who has experience in a caring post. The role is fast-paced and varied so an ability to work in an environment which has changing priorities is essential. Our team have built their experiences across a wide range of sectors and we strive to be as inclusive as possible to drive diversity across the Trust.

In addition to a competitive salary, we offer a generous suite of benefits to our employees including

• Dress down, wear your own clothes
