That’s how one of our team describes the difference they make. If you’re kind, compassionate, and ready to help others live life their way, we’d love to hear from you.

A home, not just a service
Our Heatherley Service is home to up to 42 adults with physical disabilities. Our service feels like family – relaxed, supportive, and centred around the people who live here. Every day brings new moments to celebrate: from small wins in independence to big laughs over mealtimes.

We are offering full-time hours at 34.5 hours per week, but part-time options are alos available.

You’ll need to be flexible to work across weekdays and weekends as part of a rota

Typical shifts:
\* Days: 7.30am - 7.30pm
\* Nights: 7.30pm - 7.30am

Why you’ll love working here
As well as supporting your wellbeing and career development, we offer a fantastic benefits package, including:

  • 28 days holiday per annum inclusive of bank holidays (+1 day every year up to 33 days)
  • Stream: Access up to 40% of your pay before payday
  • Free Blue Light Card: Enjoy exclusive discounts and perks
  • Contributory Pension Scheme with competitive life cover
  • Health cash plan: Affordable healthcare when you need it
  • Career development: Apprenticeships and recognised qualifications
  • Free DBS check
  • Employee Assistance Programme for 24/7 support


Enhanced pay: £1.00 per hour will only apply to night working (8pm Monday to 7am Friday) and weekend working (8pm Friday to 7am Monday). This does not apply to Sleep-Ins.

What you’ll do

  • Support with daily living tasks such as personal care, mealtimes, and medication
  • Encourage independence through a person-centred approach
  • Accompany people to appointments, events, and community activities
  • Keep clear, accurate records
  • Most importantly – help each person live life on their own terms


No previous care experience? No problem – we’ll give you all the training you need.

What helps you shine here

  • Warm, friendly, and empathetic approach
  • Willingness to work flexibly, including weekends
  • Good communication and teamwork skills
  • Personal care experience (helpful, but not essential)
  • A genuine desire to help others and make a difference


Whether you’re experienced or brand new to care, our comprehensive induction and training will help you thrive.
