Most care jobs leave you drained, underpaid for your travel time, and burnt out within months. This one is different. We're recruiting Residential Care Workers for a provider that actually values what you do, pays you for every minute you're working (including travel), and builds a real team around you so you're never left to figure it out alone
Imagine a job where you clock in at 7 am, head to a client's home to provide genuine personal care, medication support and companionship, and then when you travel to your next call across the community, you're still getting paid. Not scrambling to make up lost time. Not juggling petrol costs. Paid. This is homecare the way it should work, and it changes everything about how sustainable a care career actually is
You'll work with real people in their own homes, helping them with daily living, meal preparation, and building independence. Some days you're supporting someone through dementia care; other days it's practical companionship and making sure they're thriving. No two days are the same, which is precisely why people who do this work say it's the most rewarding thing they've ever done. You're not a cog in a machine. You're the difference between someone struggling alone and someone living well in their own community
The team here gets it. They've been doing this since 2006, and what they care about most is supporting their carers so you can actually provide great care. That means paid induction and training from day one, ongoing development, support towards your Care Certificate, shadow shifts with experienced staff, and a friendly local team that has your back. You'll get flexibility around mornings, evenings and weekends, and they genuinely work with your availability where possible
What you will be doing
- Provide personal care, medication support and companionship to clients within their own homes across the community
- Prepare meals, assist with daily living tasks and promote independence and well-being
- Support clients with dementia care and specialised needs
- Travel between client visits throughout the day (and yes, you're paid for that time)
- Work independently and communicate clearly with the local team about client needs and any concerns
Why you will love working here
- £15.07 per hour PLUS paid travel time between every care call - no more losing money to journey time
- 35p per mile contribution for drivers, so your travel costs are covered
- Fully paid induction and training, plus ongoing support towards your Care Certificate
- Flexible working patterns with genuine effort to work around your availability
- Welcome bonus, holiday pay, shadow shifts with experienced staff, and real career progression as part of a team that's been supporting carers since 2006
Is this you?
- You have the right to work in the UK and can commit to flexible shifts (mornings, evenings, and some weekends)
- You have a full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle (preferred in most areas, essential for reliable travel between clients)
- You're comfortable working independently in clients' homes and travelling through the community
- You're caring, compassionate, reliable and patient, with good communication skills
- You may already have experience as a Care Assistant, Support Worker, Healthcare Assistant or Domiciliary Carer, but genuine care experience isn't essential - we provide full training
