Our focus is you and your ongoing development. We’ll support you to achieve your potential, giving you a personal development plan to get you to where you want to be in your career at your pace.

Working a full-time job and juggling life is difficult, we know. With us, you can achieve a full-time wage with 3/4 days off each week. But if that still doesn’t suit, let us know; we have options and can be flexible to accommodate your needs.

Set in the tranquil village of Daviot, our home provides personalised care in a peaceful, natural setting. At Meallmore, Scotland’s most trusted care provider, we are dedicated to delivering excellent care in great places to live and work. Be part of a team that respects the dignity and individuality of every resident, enhancing their lives with care and empathy.

As a Senior Care Assistant with Meallmore, you will have a vital role in guiding our team in our mission to provide high-quality, personalised care:

1. Collaborating with the Registered Nurse/Team Leader to consider, plan, implement, and evaluate the comprehensive care needs of each individual using our service.
2. Cultivating and encouraging a positive work environment and practices that are safe and meet all relevant standards, policies, and legislation.
3. Utilising an all-inclusive approach to achieve outcomes in cooperation with all departments within our care service.

What we're looking for:

1. You will be registered as a supervisor with the Scottish Social Services Council within the necessary time frame.
2. You will be on a journey to obtain the qualifications needed for SSSC registration.
3. Holding an SVQ level 3 or higher, or its equivalent, in Social Services & Healthcare is a desirable trait.
4. You will have a PDA or an equivalent in Supervision.

You will successfully graduate from the Meallmore Upskills Academy Senior Care Worker Programme.
