Most care jobs feel like you're just going through the motions, clocking hours in understaffed homes with limited support and stagnant pay. This isn't one of them. We're recruiting for a home where you'll genuinely shape young people's lives, work with a team that actually backs you, and earn £13.00 per hour with real career progression built in
Picture this: you walk into work knowing exactly what matters today. You're not drowning in paperwork or covering three colleagues' shifts alone. The young people you support are settling into the home, and you're the person who helps them feel safe, heard and valued. Some days you're helping with personal care and daily routines. Other days you're the one who sits down, listens properly, and reminds them they're not invisible. That's the work that sticks with you
What makes this different is the team behind you. This provider doesn't just say they invest in staff, they actually do it. You get fully funded training all the way up to Level 5 in Health & Social Care, a proper pension scheme, and career development that doesn't feel like a box-ticking exercise. They've been doing this since 1986, they know what works, and they're still growing. Over 4,500 care professionals across the country trust them, and they're not going anywhere
And the practical stuff matters too. You'll work over 4 days, which means actual rest days. If you need accommodation or a company car, they've got you. That's the kind of employer that respects the fact you have a life outside these walls. This is care work that doesn't burn you out before you've even started
What you will be doing
- Provide personal care support including helping young people with washing, bathing, dressing and oral care
- Support daily living activities: meals, snacks, beverages, light domestic tasks and supporting independence in mobility
- Offer genuine companionship, communication and emotional support to the young people you care for
- Work flexibly across the rota to cover the needs of the home, adapting to what each young person requires on the day
Why you will love working here
- £13.00 per hour guaranteed, minimum 30 hours over 4 days so you actually get proper time off
- Fully funded training programmes up to Level 5 in Health & Social Care, because your development matters
- Free accommodation provided if you need it, plus a company car or 30p per mile fuel allowance to cover your travel
- A proper company pension scheme and an Employee Assistance Programme because we know care work is demanding
- Work for an employer that's been established since 1986, has over 100 locations, and is genuinely committed to supporting their people to stay and progress
Is this you?
- You've got at least 6 months of care experience already under your belt in the UK
- You're over 21, hold a full UK driving licence you've had for at least 12 months, and you're willing to drive as part of the role
- You have the right to work in the UK and can evidence at least 12 months continuous employment history
- You're someone who can communicate clearly, stay flexible when plans change, and bring a genuinely empathetic approach to difficult moments
- You're ready to relocate to different locations when needed and you see that as part of what makes the work interesting, not a chore
