About this job

Kallar Lodge, owned by the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham, is a distinguished residential care home renowned for its relaxing and friendly atmosphere, ensuring our residents feel as comfortable and at home as possible. We specialise in providing exceptional care and support to adults over the age of 65, particularly those living with Dementia.

We are currently seeking a number of dedicated care staff to join our team. In this role, you will provide the highest standards of care to our residents and support the ongoing development of our services. You will play a crucial role in providing residential and end-of-life care to individuals who can no longer remain at home in the community.

Your responsibilities will include supporting residents in their daily activities, encouraging participation in social events, and delivering care and companionship at its finest. Additionally, you will follow personalised care plans, assist with personal hygiene, nutritional intake, and offer social and emotional support.

Comprehensive training and support.

A supportive and collaborative work environment.

About us

Barking & Dagenham is changing. It Starts Here.

Think you know Barking and Dagenham? Think again. While this small corner of east London might have a reputation for needing development, scratch beneath the surface and you’ll find active communities and a place that consistently punches above its weight. The borough is changing – and changing for the better. And It Starts Here.

Yes, the borough has its challenges. But it’s on the cusp of something exciting. With one of the youngest populations in the country, ambitions are high and rightly so. 98% of our schools are rated Good or Outstanding and every year more of our talented teenagers get into Russell Group Universities and hotly sought after apprenticeship schemes.

We have award winning parks, centuries old manor houses full of relics and artifacts you can go and see, and the ruins of one of Anglo-Saxon England's most powerful and wealthiest religious sites. We’re even bringing beavers and white storks to the borough to help rewild the local landscape and boost biodiversity.

Over the past few years, we’ve been working hard to improve how we deliver services and support our community. From tackling inequality to making sure our services are the best they can be, we’re focused on what matters most to local people.

We’re creating the conditions for people to thrive - so everyone can enjoy a good quality of life, feel proud to call this place home, and be part of something bigger.

#ItStartsHere - with our streets, our schools, our neighbourhoods. And with your application to join our determined team who are passionate about doing what’s best for the future of Barking and Dagenham.

As an Investors in People Gold Award employer, we’re serious about supporting our staff. From flexible working, professional training and career development to wellbeing initiatives, we want our people to feel valued and supported in everything they do.

Our values, known as

DRIVE, shape how we work: Deliver our best every day – and do what we promise

Respond in a prompt, positive way to our community’s needs

Inspire others with our attitudes and actions

Value people for who they are and what they can do

Engage with others to improve our resilience and flexibility We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.
