We are looking to recruit care assistants to work with our elderly clients. Being a Care Assistant is very rewarding, especially in the current climate as care is going the extra mile.

We are looking for candidates with a flexible availability, who are happy to work 2 hour shifts and happy to travel around.

Due to the current pandemic, we will be conducting our interviews over video and our 4-day pre-employment assessment training will also be conducted online, however you will require a laptop or IPAD to complete this.
