Job Description:

Cera are recruiting Care Assistants for our Extra Care service in Elgin - Loxa Court.

Are you kind? A people person? Love making a difference in people's lives? Then we can offer you the perfect role as a Carer, where you will genuinely make a difference, every day! No experience required.

We're recruiting for Bank/Relief work to cover holidays and sickness. It's secure work that comes with good pay, great training, and no previous experience is required.

Extra Care units offer residents their own self-contained living space within a larger building, with access to care staff who are based within the unit and who provide care to each resident. As a care assistant at our Extra Care Unit, you will be supporting residents, who all have varying needs to live as independently as possible, with personalised care and support plans in place.

Every client's needs are different. You may assist with housework, help with getting up in the morning, prepare meals, provide companionship, assist with medication, or help with washing and dressing. Our carers become friends, providing human company, encouragement, and sometimes a laugh when life is tough. Caring can be challenging, but it's rewarding to support families and individuals in need.

Our benefits include:

• Pay is paid in block shifts with no travel required during your shift.
• Holiday pay and pension scheme
• Free PVG, company mobile phone, and uniform provided
• Access to our benefits & discounts platform WeCare, alongside being eligible for the Blue Light Card Scheme, offering discounts on shopping, food, and activities.
• Exclusive discounts on driving lessons, fuel, insurance, and more
• Enhanced maternity (12 weeks full pay), paternity, and parental leave policies
• Career development opportunities, including SVQ's, with internal promotion options
• Wellbeing support, including employee assistance, mental health first aiders, healthcare cash plan, and free eye tests
• Referral scheme: earn £500 per referral through Care Friends
