Or you're looking for a rewarding career change
Many of our Care Assistants have previously worked in customer-facing roles where compassion, communication, patience and reliability were already part of their everyday skills.
You don't need to have worked in care before — your existing experience could be a fantastic foundation for a career in homecare.
You'll help older and vulnerable adults remain independent, safe and comfortable in their own homes by providing:
Companionship and conversation
Personal care
Meal preparation
Medication support
Light household tasks
Shopping and community outings
Support with daily routines
Encouraging independence and wellbeing
No two visits are ever the same, but every visit gives you the opportunity to make a genuine difference to someone's day.
You don't need previous care experience — we're looking for people with the right values and attitude.
You'll be:
Kind, caring and compassionate
Reliable and punctual
A confident communicator
Patient and respectful
Passionate about helping others
Willing to learn and develop
Comfortable working independently in clients' homes
Committed to providing high-quality care
If you've worked in customer service, administration, retail, hospitality, education, childcare or another people-focused role, many of your existing skills will transfer perfectly into care.
We're currently recruiting part-time Care Assistants for between 8 and 20 hours per week.
Although we can offer flexibility around your hours, certain availability is essential for this role to ensure we can provide consistent care for our clients.
You must be able to commit to:
At least 2 evening shifts per week, approximately 4:00pm–10:00pm
Alternate weekends – Saturday and/or Sunday
A minimum of 8 hours per week
Availability across a range of morning, afternoon and evening shifts where possible
Please note: The ability to work at least two evenings per week (4:00pm–10:00pm) and alternate weekends is an essential requirement for this role.
Whether you're looking for 8, 12, 16 or 20 hours per week, we'll work with you to find a pattern that suits your availability while ensuring we can provide reliable care to our clients.
