Care Assistant (Days)

Our multi-award-winning organisation is looking to recruit a Care Assistant to join our Care team.

This isn’t just a job—it’s about building relationships, creating moments that matter, and helping people feel valued every single day.

As a Care Assistant, you’ll support residents with daily living, from personal care to mealtimes and activities, always taking a person-centred approach. You’ll get to know each resident as an individual—what matters to them, what makes them smile—and tailor your support to help them live well.

No two days are the same, but every day is meaningful.

### What you’ll be doing

Supporting residents with personal care and daily routines

Providing companionship and emotional support

Encouraging independence, choice, and dignity

Assisting with meals, activities, and wellbeing

Working as part of a supportive team to deliver outstanding care

Building positive relationships with residents, families, and colleagues

### What we’re looking for

You don’t need to have worked in care before (although it’s great if you have). What really matters is who you are:

Kind, patient, and compassionate

A great listener with a positive attitude

Reliable and a strong team player

Comfortable supporting people with a range of needs

Willing to learn and develop

### What you’ll get in return

Full training and ongoing support

Opportunities to develop your career in care

A welcoming, supportive team environment

* The chance to make a genuine difference every day

### Working pattern

You’ll work on a two-week rolling rota

Week 1: 4 days

Week 2: 2 days

12-hour shifts (8am–8pm), including some weekends

Average of 38.5 hours per week

### Why this role matters

For many of our residents, you’ll be the person who brightens their day, supports them through challenges, and helps them feel safe, respected, and valued. That’s a big responsibility—but also an incredibly rewarding one.
