Job description

About The Role

At HC-One, we are looking for enthusiastic and committed Care Assistants to join our Flex Force team.

If you’re looking to earn extra money while gaining valuable experience in the care sector, Flex Force is the perfect solution. With contracted hours and guaranteed set pay each month, you’ll also enjoy the freedom to choose shifts that fit around your family life or other commitments. Shifts will be offered across our care homes in the Huddersfield area, providing you with a variety of opportunities and flexibility to shape your working week.

Shifts are scheduled between Monday and Sunday and may not always be consecutive, including days, nights, and weekends. Flexibility is key to being a Flex Force Care Assistant, as it ensures you can adapt to the needs of our homes while still maintaining control over your schedule.

The homes include: The Denby, HD3 4YA; The Oakes, HD8 8RP; & Green Acres, HD9 4AG.

As a Flexible Care Assistant at HC-One, you’ll value kindness above all. It touches upon every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist care homes. Every person who works here understands that our residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give back to those people.

Whether providing long- or short-term care, including respite and palliative care, our focus is always on providing the kindest and highest quality care.

Delivering care that comes from the heart, ensuring residents never lose their dignity or sense of individuality. You might help someone with limited mobility, offer emotional support to distressed residents, or deliver end-of-life care, always prioritizing their well-being.

Duties include:

• Supporting residents with personal care activities such as washing, hygiene, dressing, and meals
• Helping residents with limited mobility
• Taking responsibility for the wellbeing of residents on and off-site

A driving license with access to a vehicle is advantageous but not essential.

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. You should recognize signs of abuse, harm, or neglect and know how to act if concerns arise. All colleagues must attend safeguarding training and undertake additional relevant training. You should be able to seek advice and report concerns, escalating issues if necessary.

We value qualities like curiosity, compassion, creativity, courage, and reliability—what we call Kindness the HC-One Way. We foster an inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and can be themselves, reflecting the diverse communities we serve.

As part of the Flex Force team, you’ll receive full training and opportunities to develop your career in care. We invest in our colleagues and offer benefits such as:

• Guaranteed hours and pay with a permanent contract
• Flexible shifts to suit your lifestyle
• Pay progression with experience
• Opportunities near your home
• Paid annual leave
• Learning and development programs
• Life assurance and pension schemes
