Are you a compassionate and empathetic individual eager to make a meaningful difference in others’ lives? At CrossReach, we offer you the opportunity to become a Care Worker, supported by comprehensive training and a nurturing team environment.
As a Care Worker with CrossReach, you'll provide essential support to individuals needing assistance with daily living activities. Your role will involve helping people with personal care, administering medication, and offering companionship, all while respecting their dignity and promoting their independence. You’ll play a crucial part in enhancing their quality of life, whether by aiding them in daily routines or simply being a friendly presence.
Our charity is one of Scotland's largest social care providers, committed to offering high-quality care across various settings. We support people from diverse backgrounds and life circumstances, ensuring they can live fulfilling lives. You’ll join a team of dedicated professionals who come from various walks of life—some seasoned in care, others from different fields or just starting their career journey.
In this relief role, you’ll have the flexibility to work as and when you prefer, adjusting your shifts to fit around your other commitments. This flexibility is ideal for maintaining a healthy work-life balance while gaining valuable experience in the social care sector. Whether you’re new to care or looking to continue your career, we offer a supportive environment where you can grow and thrive.
Your contribution will be vital in helping individuals lead their best lives, and in return, we provide a supportive, dynamic team environment and opportunities for personal and professional growth.
CrossReach has been at the forefront of high quality social care for over 150 years, providing loving care to people of all ages and supporting them to live life to the full whatever their circumstances. During that time, we have worked hard to understand the needs of the people who turn to us for help and with them have been at the forefront of pioneering services which have literally changed thousands of lives for the better.
Today we are one of the largest social care providers in Scotland, with experience across a broad range of services. We are still growing, learning, and improving, thanks to the incredible people we have the privilege to support, and all those who support us. We are part of the Church of Scotland and aim to provide social care services and specialist resources in Christ’s name to further the caring work of the Church to people in challenging circumstances.
As we do our work in Christ’s name you must be respectful of our Christian Ethos and be able to work within it.
