A rewarding role, making a real difference
A career in care is more than just a job. It’s about building meaningful relationships, supporting independence, and being there when it matters most.

Whether you’re changing careers or taking your first step, you’ll be making every day better for the people we support.

“I’ve always enjoyed helping people, so it made sense to build a career around that desire to help.” After a career in the Royal Air Force, Philip decided to make a change and start a career in care.

He loves his role as a Health Care Assistant, but don’t just take our word for it. Hear from Philip here:


About you
We value relevant experience and qualifications, but they aren’t essential for this role.

You’re:

caring, kind, understanding and calm
able to deal with, and defuse, challenging situations
energetic and outgoing, with a positive, can-do attitude
a great listener and communicator.
If you haven’t worked in the care sector before, we’ll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy and ongoing training programmes.


What we offer
We offer great rewards and perks including:

regular supervision, peer support, learning opportunities and career prospects
access to wages before payday with Stream
retail and lifestyle discounts
free DBS check
24/7 counselling and support
Blue Light Card eligibility.
