What we’re looking for in our Senior Care & Support Worker:
Here at Trust we are dedicated to making a real difference in caring and supporting people in their everyday lives.
As a Senior Care and Support Worker, you'll play a vital role in supporting older and vulnerable adults in their own homes. Working on an alternating 3-week rolling rota with another senior, you will form a good working relationship; you will not work on the same shift as the other senior but are expected to communicate well between you both.
Enthusiastic and a supportive team member, your duties would involve supporting and mentoring Support staff, managing rotas, identify training needs, supervision, and leading the writing of personal, care & support plans. There will also be some practical support with the tenant’s daily life including homecare support, personal care and helping to promote a positive, active and healthy lifestyle. Your empathetic and respectful approach will make a real difference to our tenants' lives.
In return for your enthusiasm and commitment we will offer you: -
Hourly Rate: £16.05 per hour
Hours: 35 hours per week
Rota: Every 3-weeks
Job Type: Permanent Contract
On-Site Working: Our tenants are all based within one housing development, designed for later living and maximising independence.
Living Wage Employer: We value our team members and offer competitive pay.
Training and Development: Access to paid training, ongoing development, and SVQ qualifications.
Supportive Environment: Join a welcoming, friendly, and inclusive culture.
Career Progression: Real opportunities to grow within our committed team.
Additional Benefits: Uniform, generous annual leave, pension contributions, paid SSSC membership and paid PVG Disclosure check.
Care & Support Skills and Experience:
Ideally you have experience in the care sector and working with older people or other vulnerable members of a community, so you will understand and have an appreciation of their needs and know how to meet these.
You will demonstrate excellent written and verbal communication skills, and supervisory experience.
An SVQ Level 3 in Health & Social Care or a commitment to achieve this qualification is also required to comply with the registration/timescale requirements of the SSSC.
You will possess basic IT skills.
Previous experience is preferred but not essential; we provide comprehensive training and support. What matters most is your passion, empathy, and dedication to helping our tenants live their lives to the fullest. It’ll be rewarding looking after those who rely on the support and dedication you’ll bring to this important role.
If you are successful in joining our team, we can provide you with fantastic opportunities to develop your experience or enhance your career in social care and assist with your ongoing continued personal development.
Join our outstanding and committed team, learn from experienced colleagues, and contribute to a supportive environment. Your role as a Senior Care & Support Worker will make a meaningful difference every day.
Closing Date: 12 noon on Friday 12th June 2026.
