Domiciliary Night Carer

Domiciliary Night Care Assistant

Location: Oxlip House, Bury St Edmunds

Contracted Hours: 18 hours per week

ABOUT THE ROLE

Are you an experienced carer with a preference to work nights?

Our Domiciliary Night Care Assistants make a real difference to our clients every day; whether it’s helping them with their routines or personal care or providing companionship, you’ll play a vital role in ensuring they are leading happy and fulfilled lives. No two days will be the same, but all of our clients live in the same building, so you won’t need to travel between different locations.

In this role, you’ll usually be the most senior person on site during your night shift and will take charge in the event of any emergencies that arise, as well as keeping wakeful watch on the security and safety of our residents and the scheme in general.

Joining us means becoming part of our extended family. You’ll work alongside other passionate team members committed to providing care, warmth, and kindness to all those in our schemes.

AND IN RETURN

The Trust is a great place to work; we’ve been providing care for almost 1, years and are the second largest not-for-profit provider in the UK. We reinvest every penny into our residents, tenants, colleagues, and the schemes we operate. We offer a competitive salary and invest in training and development. Benefits include:

• 28 days holiday (including Bank Holidays)
• Higher rates of pay at weekends
• Life assurance
• Comprehensive induction, ongoing training, and development
• Free uniform
• Free DBS
• Free car parking
• Refer a Friend scheme with rewards
• Access to Employee Assistance programme
• Charity membership for well-being and financial aid
• Blue Light Card and “My Rewards” discounts

ABOUT OUR SCHEMES

Our Extra Care Housing schemes, or assisted living, feature self-contained apartments designed for independence. Clients can come and go freely, socialize, or enjoy privacy. Our care teams support clients round the clock with daily tasks and activities.

Oxlip House is situated in a new residential area on the outskirts of Bury St Edmunds, rated 9.3 by homecare.co.uk.

ABOUT YOU

You’ll manage the night shift independently, so previous experience caring for vulnerable individuals or working in residential care is essential. A Diploma/NVQ Level 2 in Health and Social Care or equivalent is preferred. You should be good at communication, compassionate, team-oriented, eager to learn, and committed to excellence in your work.
