About The Role

Please note that this is a part-time role working 23 hours per week from 8am - 3pm. Full flexibility is required.

Location: Woodthorpe Lodge, Loughborough LE11

In your role as a Housekeeping Assistant at HC One, kindness will be at the core of everything you do. 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 individuals.

Your responsibilities will include maintaining a clean, hygienic, safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment, demonstrating your attention to detail. Whether managing the cleaning rota or actively participating in cleaning tasks, you'll do so with kindness and professionalism.

We are looking for a Housekeeping Assistant with experience, although we will provide comprehensive training. Excellent time management and organizational skills are essential. Your positive energy, natural ability to connect with people, and effective communication skills—both listening and instructing—are vital. Always communicate considerately and kindly with residents and colleagues.

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility. You should be able to recognize signs of potential abuse, harm, or neglect and know the appropriate steps to take. All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training relevant to their role and to pursue additional training as needed. You should also be proactive in seeking advice and reporting concerns, including escalation if necessary.

Benefits

We offer full training, providing a great opportunity to learn new skills. In addition, you will enjoy a wide range of benefits to support your physical and mental well-being, including:

• Paid Enhanced DBS/PVG
• Free uniform
• Hourly rate based on experience and qualifications
• Company pension scheme
• 28 days' annual leave inclusive of bank holidays
• Group life assurance
• Wagestream for flexible access to your pay
• Learning and development opportunities, including support to achieve qualifications
• GP online service for round-the-clock consultations
• Learning from experienced colleagues within a dedicated team
• Colleague discounts at over 1600 high street stores
• Confidential Employee Assistance Programme for physical, mental, and financial support
• Recognition schemes like 'Kindness in Care' and Long Service Awards
• Refer a friend scheme offering up to £1000 per successful referral

We are committed to inclusivity and encourage applicants from all backgrounds to join our HC-One family. We aim to provide a swift onboarding process to ensure a smooth start for new colleagues.
