About the role

We have higher‑than‑average staffing levels when compared to other care providers, giving you more time to spend with the people you support.

You’re also:

• caring, kind, understanding and calm
• able to deal with, and defuse, challenging situations
• energetic and outgoing, with a positive, can‑do attitude
• a great listener and communicator

You’ll put people at the heart of everything you do.

If you haven’t worked in the care sector before, we’ll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy and ongoing training programmes.

What we offer

We offer great rewards and perks including:

• regular supervision, peer support, learning opportunities and career prospects
• access to wages before payday
• retail and lifestyle discounts
