Job description

Social network you want to login/join with:

At Hamberley, we believe that our residents deserve something ‘Extra Special, Every Day’ and we're recruiting for a Senior Care Assistant to help us achieve our goals.

At Upton Manor Care Home, our Senior Care Assistants are called Homemaker Leads. More than support workers, care assistants or healthcare assistants, they are carers and companions all in one. They have the time to get to know our residents and are trusted to give each person the care they need, in the way they like.

Joining us at Upton Manor, our luxury care home that provides residential, dementia, and nursing care for older people, you'll be part of a team that is genuinely passionate about the health and well-being of our residents.

Working Pattern: 12-hour shifts and working alternate weekends on a rota basis.

We offer our Senior Care Assistants - our Homemaker Leads:

• Competitive salary and benefits package
• 28 days holiday (inclusive of Bank Holidays)
• Quality bonus scheme linked to CQC rating
• A supportive and collaborative working environment
• Opportunities for professional development and training
• Range of retail discounts and savings
• Free onsite parking available
• Unlimited Refer a Friend Bonus - up to £750 per referral - t&cs apply*
• Employee Assistance Programme, occupational health support and wellbeing services

Be different, be a Homemaker Lead

At Hamberley, we believe that our residents deserve something ‘Extra Special, Every Day’. Our Homemaker Leads are a unique caring role for a unique person, where you can care with a difference.

• A varied role where no two days are the same: We care for individuals in the way a family member might care for someone in their home. We don’t do timetabled task-based care; we care for each individual in the way that works best for them. Whether that’s administering medication, helping make someone’s bed, arranging a family meal, or taking them to the beauty salon, you’ll always be doing something different. Our Homemakers focus on the tiny details that make our residents unique, tailoring care to each person.
• A chance to make a real difference: As a Homemaker, you have fewer people to care for but spend more quality time with them. It’s a more satisfying and fulfilling role that benefits our residents. This model has won awards.
• Supportive team environment: Being kind and supportive to each other is key to our ability to show kindness and companionship to our residents. We truly believe this across all parts of our organisation. It’s a reason why many stay with us.

Could you be part of our team?

You may have experience as a senior healthcare assistant, healthcare assistant, care assistant, carer, home care assistant, or domiciliary care assistant and are seeking a different approach, a nicer work environment, and a more satisfying role.

We are looking for applicants with:

• A strong background in care
• Training experience or qualification
• Educated to NVQ Level 3 (desirable)
