  • £13.50 per hour (weekends)

Shift patterns:

We do not operate on strict shift blocks (e.g. 7am–3pm or 3pm–10pm). Instead, we build schedules around each Care Professional’s availability while ensuring service needs are met and the above requirements are fulfilled.

  • Care Professionals must work alternate weekends.
  • We have very flexible weekly working hours, but candidates must provide a minimum availability of 10 hours per week, while still meeting our required conditions (minimum two days including anti-social hours and alternate weekends).
  • The role initially operates on a 0-hour contract during the probationary period. After successfully completing probation, we are able to offer an average-hours contract based on the hours you have consistently worked.

  • Employee Assistance Programme (wellbeing support)
  • Paid annual leave & pension scheme

We also prioritise quality care:

  • Minimum 1-hour morning visits
  • Minimum 45-minute afternoon visits
  • Time to build meaningful relationships and no rushed care

  • Supporting them to stay safe, comfortable, and secure

  • Offering companionship and emotional support
  • Assisting with medication reminders
  • Encouraging independence and promoting wellbeing

This is a role where you can make a genuine difference every single day.

  • Availability to work alternate weekends
