Job description

Founded in 2005, Archangel Care began with a single, locally based residential unit for adults with learning disabilities. It has subsequently grown year on year and now has three branches covering Nottingham, Staffordshire and West Cheshire.

What you'll be doing:

We provide Supported Living Accommodation, Domiciliary Care and Outreach Support to adults with learning disabilities and mental health issues, some of which also have physical disabilities.

Our customers are all very different with their own individual needs and interests, and we tailor their support to help them live a happy and fulfilled life, supporting them to access the community and complete everyday tasks such as shopping, cooking, finances, housework.

Excellent Benefits and Company Culture:

You have to be a special person to join our team at Archangel. Working in care means each day is varied and the challenges are hard, so you need to be committed. In return, you will have the privilege of making a difference to someone’s life - you will laugh and never be bored.

You don't need experience in care to apply:

If you have ever considered joining the care sector, then we want to hear from you.

We are looking for new candidates that are excited to get into the care sector for the first time, or experienced carers looking to work for a care provider that puts people first. We will provide full training in preparing candidates for their role and we pay candidates to complete their training.

Your work will be planned to ensure you routinely work with the same customers. This helps you, our future staff members, to provide high quality, consistent care.

Working Hours:

Part time and full time permanent contracts are available

We have a variety of shifts available and working alternate weekends is essential

Pay Rates:

We pay a basic rate of £12.93 per hour with enhancements for overtime and bank holidays up to double time. We also pay into your holiday pot which accrues separately at a rate of £1.21 to £2.41 per hour depending on the type of shift you are working. Plus, we pay a mileage contribution and factor travel time into your pay when applicable.

Bonus Scheme:

We have a generous bonus scheme which includes a payment of £170 for completing your probationary period, and we have a refer a friend scheme which will pay £200 to the person that makes the referral once the new candidate has completed their probationary period.
