JOB TITLE
Home Care Assistant - Local Rounds, Real Relationships
LOCATION
Kingston upon Thames and surrounding areas (KT and TW postcodes including Surbiton, New Malden, Molesey, Thames Ditton, Walton-on-Thames, Cobham, Staines, Sunbury-on-Thames, Egham and Shepperton)
CONTRACT TYPE
Permanent, part-time or full-time available
HOURS
A mixture of morning shifts 7am to 2pm and evening shifts 4pm to 10pm. We are happy to discuss which shift pattern suits you.
SALARY
£12.71 per hour plus travel (£12.91 per hour for senior grade)
---
We have been caring for people in their own homes across Kingston and Surrey for over 30 years. We are a small, established team - not a national agency - and that makes a real difference to how we work.
WHAT THIS JOB ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE
You will visit clients in their own homes, helping with personal care, medication, meals and companionship. Your rounds will be local - within a few miles of where you live - and you will build genuine, lasting relationships with the same clients week after week.
We have morning shifts (7am–2pm) and evening shifts (4pm–10pm) available. Whether you prefer mornings or evenings, or can cover both, we will work with you to find a pattern that suits. Every second weekend is part of the role.
This is not zero-hours agency work. We offer consistent hours, local rounds and the kind of continuity that makes the job rewarding.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle
- The right to work in the UK - please confirm you hold a UK or Irish passport, a biometric residence permit showing indefinite leave to remain or settled status, or pre-settled status with proof of right to work. Applications without this cannot be progressed.
- Compassion, reliability and the ability to work independently
- Previous care experience is welcome but not essential - we provide full training
- Availability for morning shifts (7am–2pm), evening shifts (4pm–10pm), or both, and every second weekend
WHAT CLARENDON OFFERS

- DBS check covered by us
- Consistent local rounds - no excessive travel
- Morning or evening shifts to suit your availability
- A small, supportive office team you can actually get hold of
- Work that genuinely matters - our clients depend on us and value what we do
- Over 30 years in the area - we are not going anywhere
