• Paid travel time plus paid mileage.
• A range of guaranteed hours contracts available e.g.: 12, 16, 30 hours p/week. Or zero-hours to suit your availability.
• Your pay, whenever you need it - take a portion of your pay early, no need to wait until payday.
• Paid holiday, even on a zero-hour contract.
• Paid training and shadowing.
• DBS fee paid (after a qualifying period).
• Regular working pattern with the same Clients.
• 24/7 on call support and a friendly and supportive office team.
• Regular team meetings, training updates and support visits.

• Access to our Home Instead benefits.
• Refer a friend bonus scheme and company pension.

This is a fantastic, rewarding role and you will really be making a difference to someone's life.

Qualifications

No previous home care assistant experience is needed, just your natural caring qualities. We will support you with full training, shadow shifts and introductions to all your new clients.

Having a full, UK driver's licence and your own car is essential due to some home care assistant tasks that may be involved and being able to travel to client's homes within a 15 minute window.

We provide free ongoing learning and development opportunities such as the Care Certificate, Health and Social Care diplomas and an extensive range of distance learning courses.

Additional Information

We encourage applications from all sections of the community as we want to reflect the neighbourhoods in which we work. Home Instead is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of adults and expects all staff to share this commitment. The home care assistant role is subject to DBS enhanced disclosure.

This role is UK based and the right to work in the UK will need to be established as part of the home care assistant recruitment process.
