Senior Care Assistant

Location:

Downley

Pay rate: £13.70 per hour

Contracted hours: 14 hours per week

Are you a senior experienced carer or support worker with the passion to make a difference?

We support adults with learning disabilities, physical disabilities, autism, and other complex needs to live fulfilling, independent lives. Downley Lodge is a separate, adjacent accommodation within The Heights’ site where younger adults with complex needs live. It has its own staff team and entrance but is part of the same overall CQC-regulated service.

In return we’ll provide opportunities for career development and training to support your personal growth, all delivered in a nurturing, engaging and rewarding environment.

The Trust is a great place to work; we’ve been providing care for almost 1,000 years and we’re currently the second largest not-for-profit provider in the UK. Not-for-profit means that we reinvest every penny we make into our residents, colleagues and the care homes we live and work in. Therefore, we offer a great range of benefits, including a competitive salary, training and development

Here are some of the other benefits you’ll enjoy as a valued member of our team:

• 30 days holiday (including Bank Holidays)
• A Company pension
• Free uniform
• Free DBS
• Access to our Employee Assistance Programme
• Care Worker Charity membership for well being and financial aid

You’ll have previous experience of working in a residential care setting with a NVQ Level 3 Diploma in Health & Social Care. You might have previous supervisory experience, like delegating tasks, supporting inductions for new starters and 1 to 1s but this is not essential.

If you think you have the right skills and attitude to deliver the highest quality of care for our residents as a Senior Support Worker within our care homes, then you could be the next to join us.
