What you'll do:

• Provide person-centred support at home and in the community
• Encourage independence, confidence, and fun
• Support daily activities, outings, and hobbies
• Build a trusted, consistent relationship with the client

About you:

• Compassionate, reliable, and proactive
• Comfortable around dogs and outdoor activities
• A confident driver with a full UK licence
• Someone who brings positivity and humour to every day

What we can offer you:

• Up to £14 per hour dependant on NVQ qualification
• A paid DBS check
• Top-tier training from our Learning Hub and Clinical Nurses
• Consistent work with regular, rolling rotas, with someone who'll always be happy to see you - 11am - 5pm 7 days a week
• Holiday pay, a Nest pension, and plenty of career support
• Active Awards programme to celebrate outstanding care
• Refer a friend and earn up to £1,500
