Job Description
Primary Responsibilities
Care Assistant
You step into this role thinking you’re there to make someone’s day. And you are. But here’s what they don’t tell you: the feeling you take home is the real gift.
Picture this:
You visit Mrs. Thompson, who, at 87, still insists on offering you a biscuit with your tea, and pop the kettle on for a good chat. You’re not just helping with her daily routine—you’re the person she looks forward to seeing all week. Your hourly visits are the one thing she relies on to get through the week, the support she knows will always be there when the world feels a little too quiet.
And then there’s Mr. Harris. You help him lace up his boots, take his hand, and guide him on his favourite winter walk along Kemble High Street. But when he looks at you and smiles, “I couldn’t do this without you,” you feel the weight of those words. What you thought was just a walk? It’s his independence. It’s his connection to a world that would be out of reach without you.
And at the end of the day?
You go home, wrap your hands around a hot chocolate, and that feeling stays with you. It’s not just ticking off a list—it’s knowing you’ve actually made a difference in someone’s day. That’s the kind of fulfilment that’s hard to find anywhere else. You’ll find it with us, at Home Instead.
Whether you’ve worked in care before or it’s your first time, we provide all the training and support you need. You’ll never feel alone—we’re here to support you in everything you do.
We’re looking for people who are naturally caring, curious about the stories our clients have to share, and passionate about learning new skills. Many of our Care Professionals have never worked in care before, but they all share that one thing in common: a heart for helping others.
What’s In It For You?
1. Competitive Pay: Up to £15 per hour, and time and a half on Bank Holidays + 30p per mile.
2. Hours that fit your life: Work mornings, evenings, or weekends—tailor your schedule to suit.
3. Minimum ONE HOUR visits: You are always paid for the FULL hour.
4. Feel appreciated: We show our appreciation with bonuses—£150 for each successful employee referral.
5. Receive expert training: at £11.44 per hour plus opportunities for additional qualifications and career advancement.
6. Fully-funded qualifications: Earn Level 2, 3, and 5 qualifications.
7. Wellbeing Support: Free counselling and expert legal advice for you and your family.
8. Local and national Discounts: Save on your weekly shop and at dozens of your favourite online shops.
