Job summary
We are a 28 bed, privately owned care home in the tranquil village of SAMBROOK, 5 miles north of NEWPORT
We are seeking a carer to join our team on days.
- The shift pattern is 36hrs one week and 42hrs the next (equating to 3 days one week and 3 1/2 days the next)
- Shifts are 12 hrs - starting at 7:30am and finishing at 7:30pm
- Crucially we pay for the whole 12 hours (we do not deduct time for lunch of breaks). This is important if you are comparing headline rates. For example at £12.50/hr you would earn £150 in a shift. If you compare us with a company that deducts an hour for lunch and 2x15mins for breaks then that is equivalent to earning £150 in 10.5hrs so our comparitive rate would be £14.29/hr)
- We are a family run home with a great reputation and many awards, and a low turn-over of staff so job vacancies are relativly rare (we have people that have worked here for over 20 years and Gill our Care Manager has been here for 18 years)
- You would be joining a friendly team whose focus is on delivering a high standard for care to our residents
- * 5.6 weeks paid leave
- * NEST pension scheme enrollment
- * Food and drink provided throughout the shift
- * Free uniforms
- * Free DBS check
SORRY - WE CANNOT PROVIDE SPONSORSHIP
Skills / Qualifications:
- Pay is linked to qualifications
- We are a small(ish) team and so we are seeking someone who can be flexible to cover (as everyone is) to share the cover for colleagues when they are off
- We will consider qualified carers and those new to care
- We are hot on training and will encourage and support the successful candidate to attain their level 2 and/or level 3 in care
