Job description

Looking for a rewarding role where you can truly change someone’s life? We’re searching for compassionate and dependable Care Assistants to join our dedicated team supporting an adult client in his home in Ilfracombe, EX34

In this meaningful role, you’ll provide personalised support to a client living with a brain tumour, who experiences difficulties with balance, coordination, swallowing, and uses a PEG tube. Don’t worry if you don’t have clinical experience in these areas — full specialist training will be provided before you begin.

The client lives at home with his husband and their small, friendly dog, creating a warm and welcoming environment where your care and support will make a genuine impact every day. The role also includes supporting the client to enjoy social and leisure activities, including assisting him to attend the gym, local Pilates classes, and spending time at the beach.

What you’ll be doing:

• Delivering compassionate, person-centred care tailored to the client’s needs
• Assisting with daily living activities and clinical support following full training
• Working closely with our clinical team to promote comfort, dignity, and wellbeing
• Building a positive and trusting relationship with the client and his family

Shift Details:

• Day shifts: 8:00am – 8:00pm, weekdays and weekends
• Drivers required for this role, therefore you need a full UK driving licence.

This is offered on a zero hour contract, however contracted hours may be considered after a successful probation period.

Perks & Benefits:

• Pay up to £14.00/hour (based on experience)
• Paid DBS check and induction training
• Consistent work schedule for stability
• Holiday pay & Nest pension
• Recognition through our Active Awards programme
• Refer-a-Friend scheme – earn up to £1,000!
• Incredible support from our clinical and business leadership team

At Active Care Group we want everyone to feel welcome and supported. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences. If you need any reasonable adjustments during the recruitment or interview process, just let us know and we’d be very happy to discuss this with you.
