Job Description

A new opportunity has become available at Home Instead Doncaster.

We are looking for an advanced support worker fluent in Polish and English! Join our team to look after a polish client.

This is a part time position of up to 16 hours per week at variable start and finish times based at the clients home in Doncaster.

Our client has a brain injury and requires support with medication, meal prep, companionship and to be taken out to engage in social activities such as going to the cinema.

Here at Home Instead, We believe care should never be rushed.

That’s why every visit we deliver is a minimum of one hour, creating the time and space for genuine, person-centred relationships.

If you want a role where quality and dignity matter, and where you’re supported to do the job properly, you might be a great fit for our team in Doncaster.

What You’ll Receive

  • £13/hour weekdays, £14 on weekends
  • Double time on bank holidays
  • 30p mileage between clients
  • 12–16 hours to start (more as the rota grows)
  • Every second weekend off
  • Full training – no experience needed
  • City & Guilds-accredited dementia training available
  • Supportive, respectful local management
  • Guaranteed hours available after successful probation
  • Employee Assistance Programme
  • Refer a Friend: £300

Your Availability

We’re looking for people who can work:

  • 8am - 2.30pm and 4pm - 9pm shifts
  • Alternate weekends (essential for this role)
  • Some flexibility to support client continuity

How You’ll Make a Difference

Our clients rely on us for stability, respect, and genuine human connection. Your visits may include:

  • Companionship and meaningful conversation
  • Personal care (washing, dressing, bathing)
  • Light household tasks
  • Medication prompts
  • Meal preparation
  • Attending appointments or shopping

Who We’re Looking For

You do not need care experience.

Values matter far more.

You might be ideal if you are:

  • Kind, patient and reliable
  • Comfortable working independently
  • Able to use good judgement in day‑to‑day situations
  • Honest about your availability
  • Motivated to make a real difference
  • A driver with access to your own car

Why Our Care Professionals Choose Home Instead

  • Time to care properly — not rushed 15-minute tasks
  • Honest communication and realistic expectations
  • Consistency of clients
  • A team culture built on respect, not pressure
  • Managers who listen, support and act

What Happens Next

Once you apply, you’ll receive an acknowledgement within 24-48 hours......however if you are a really STAND OUT candidate we may contact you within hours of your application!

We review every application carefully and will contact you as soon as possible and then invite you to schedule a call with us to find out more about you and tell you about the position.

If we’re a good match for each other, we’ll guide you through training and get you started once you're ready.

We look forward to meeting you!
