  • Completing accurate visit records using our thermal printer system.

  • Reporting any concerns, risks, or safeguarding issues to the appropriate teams and organisations.

  • Helping people stay safe, comfortable, and independent within their own homes.

We're Looking For Someone Who Is:

✅ Caring and empathetic
✅ Reliable and trustworthy
✅ Calm under pressure
✅ Motivated and proactive
✅ An excellent communicator
✅ Flexible and able to travel across Norfolk when required

  • Previous experience working within the care sector.

  • Full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle.

  • Excellent spoken and written English.

  • Positive attitude and strong customer focus.

  • Ability to work independently and make sound decisions.

  • Commitment to safeguarding and delivering high-quality care.

Why You’ll Love Working With Us:

  • Full Training & Paid Induction
    • 6 days paid induction at our Beccles branch
    • Shadow shifts with experienced carers
    • Earn your Care Certificate & NVQs – fully funded

    • Paid holiday
    • Free uniform & full PPE
    • Company mobile
    • Refer-a-Friend bonus (£100 – T&Cs apply)
