THERE'S NO JOB QUITE LIKE IT!

Please note this is a community position travelling from home to home.

Please note that due a high volume female-only service user population and the intimate nature of associated role responsibilities, gender is considered to be a genuine occupational requirement for
the majority of our care worker roles (which are available to female applicants only) as permitted under the Equality Act 2010.

We have a limited number of opportunities for male care workers and reserve the right to close the recruitment process early where the number of applications exceeds our requirements.

Good luck with your application
