We’re looking for a reliable, experienced care assistant with flexibility to work across the week and weekends. If you have worked as a domiciliary carer, health care assistant, been a carer in a care home or hospital, then we’d love to speak with you about joining our visiting care team in the St Albans area.

Rest assured, we pay for your travel and the time that you spend travelling.

Options currently include up to 15 hours guaranteed per week, with availability required at weekends. Due to our current client requirements, we regret to advise we do not have any vacancies at the moment for school time hours.
