Qualifications

🦸 What You’ll Need (Besides a Cape and Superpowers!)

Hold onto your hats — ideally, you’ll have at least 6 months of social care experience to join our merry band of care crusaders!

Don’t worry — we’ll help you level up your skills and knowledge as part of our close-knit (and delightfully quirky) team.

• 🚗 Driver Essential: A full UK driving licence and access to your own vehicle is strictly required for travel between clients (some clients live in rural areas and need heroes who can reach them).

• 💙 Have compassion oozing from every pore

• 🗣️ Can communicate like a UN diplomat

• 🧩 Possess problem-solving powers that would impress Mother Teresa

• 👵 Are committed to respectful, high-quality care that would make your gran proud

• ✅ Have the right to work within the UK (Please note: We are unable to offer visa sponsorship).
