Full Job Description

We are looking for you to work as a care assistant making a real difference to our residents lives every day. Along with supporting daily routines and personal care (washing, bathing, supporting toilet use) we are looking for the right people to genuinely care for our residents and create a happy fulfilled life for them. Some days may be challenging but you will laugh, have fun and make lasting memories. You'll become part of our extended family too, bringing kindness, exceptional care and dignity to our care homes.

We are looking for both experienced carers and those that are new to care to build our teams with diverse people who can bring all sorts of life experience to the job. We provide induction training and support, with ongoing development opportunities for you to really build a career with us. You will be a great communicator and able to build relationships and positive working and living environments. We'd love you to love your job.

As an established manager, Lyndsay reflects: "I take great pride in the team that I have here at Larkrise, they do everything to ensure that the residents have a wonderful life. Every day they treasure our residents as though they are their own and that for me is perfect."

We're currently the second largest not-for-profit provider in the UK, meaning we reinvest every penny we make into our homes, residents lives and team members. We offer a great range of benefits:

  • 28 days holiday; increasing with length of service (pro rat'd for part time)
  • Higher weekend pay
  • Workplace pension
  • Free uniform
  • Free DBS
  • Free car parking
  • Life assurance
  • Comprehensive induction, ongoing training and development
  • Refer a Friend scheme rewarding you up to £1000 for every recommendation you make who successfully starts working for us
  • Access to our Employee Assistance programme
  • Care Worker Charity membership for well being and financial aid
  • Blue Light Card and "My Rewards" programme, offering you discounts on shopping, days out, restaurants and much more.
