About the role
At Greenwood Homecare, we believe that delivering genuine, one-to-one care in someone's own home is one of the most meaningful jobs there is. We're looking for warm, dedicated people to join our live-in care team — helping our customers live independently, safely, and in the lifestyle they love.
We'll take the time to understand your strengths and personality, then match you with a customer who's the right fit for you. This isn't just a job — it's a relationship built on trust, compassion, and real human connection.
We are looking for carers to work in and around the Peterborough area.
What you'll do
You'll live with your customer in their home, providing consistent, personalised support that may include:
- Personal care — bathing, dressing, grooming, and continence support
- Medication assistance and safe use of mobility aids or hoists
- Household tasks — cooking, cleaning, laundry, and gardening
- Companionship — trips out, activities, conversations, and shared routines
Work pattern
We work with you to find a pattern that fits your life. The most popular is two weeks on, two weeks off — but we're flexible, and longer placements are possible. Your work-life balance matters to us just as much as great care for our customers.
What we're looking for
- A caring, patient, and reliable nature — that's the most important thing
- Good verbal and written English
- Eligibility to work in the UK
- Willingness to complete an enhanced DBS check (we cover the cost)
- Previous care experience is a bonus, but not essential — we'll train you fully
What you'll get
+£800–£900 per week, plus paid travel
+28 days paid holiday including bank holidays (pro-rata)
+Fully funded training and DBS check before you start
+Mobile phone allowance
+Unlimited online training courses and ongoing professional development
+Monthly workshops, team meetings, and group supervisions
+Career progression including QCF qualifications
+£200 refer-a-friend bonus
+Reward and recognition scheme
