Are you the one your friends always turn to for a chat and a warm cup of tea? Do you have a heart of gold and a natural knack for making people smile?

What will you be doing?
You will be the highlight of someone’s day. As a Care Assistant, you’ll be visiting vulnerable adults in the Flint community in their own homes, helping them to maintain their independence and dignity. No two days are exactly the same, but your day might include:
- Helping someone get ready for the day with a bright 'good morning' (assisting with washing and dressing).
- Preparing a hearty breakfast or lunch.
- Prompting medication.
- Most importantly, providing a listening ear, a friendly chat, and a bit of much-needed companionship.
Do I need experience?
Not necessarily! Whether you’ve cared for a family member, raised a family of your own, or are just looking for a meaningful career change where your natural compassion can shine, we provide full, paid training to give you all the confidence you need.
What’s in it for you?
- Fantastic Pay: £13.30 per hour.
- Mileage Allowance: Mileage paid to keep our drivers moving.
- No Car? No Problem! We have friendly, compact walking routes available, so walkers are warmly welcomed.
- Total Flexibility: Tell us when you are available to work, and we’ll build a rota that suits your lifestyle.
- Stability & Support: As part of the UK’s largest home care provider, you get the lovely, family-feel of our Flint branch, fully backed by the resources, training, and stability of a national network.
Ready to do something amazing? If you’re ready to bring your heart to work and join a team that will cheer you on every step of the way, we want to hear from you. Apply today, or drop into our Durham Comfort Call branch for a no-obligation chat and a cuppa—we can’t wait to meet you!
