Carer 36.75 - (O) 19124
At OSJCT we care about our residents and we care about each other. That means you’ll enjoy great career development working for an expanding organisation. Because we’re a not for profit trust, we invest every penny we make in the people who live in our homes and the people who work here too. This means better quality care and lovely homes for our residents, along with competitive wages and great training and development for our people.
We provide outstanding care, working closely with leading experts on dementia and elderly care. And we’re currently modernising our portfolio of care homes – refurbishing our existing homes and moving into new, inspiring, contemporary care homes too.
As we expand nationwide, we need more people with the right mix of skills, passion and ambition to help us grow even more.
How many of us can say we make a real difference to people’s lives? You can do this with us alongside receiving ongoing training and development, leading benefits and a range of discounts on shopping, days out, restaurants and much more.
What will you be doing?
As Carer you will be working as part of a dedicated team of fully supported staff who have our resident’s emotional and physical wellbeing at the core of all they do. You will show warmth, and compassion to our residents and their families; helping to promote their independence and dignity.
Every day will be different, so you can expect to undertake work that’s as varied as it is rewarding. As a Carer, you’ll help our residents enjoy each day by making sure they get the quality care they deserve. You’ll assist with their daily living, encouraging their participation in meaningful activities as well as providing support and companionship.
What experience do you need?
Due to our strong training team, you do not need to have previous care experience. All we ask for is someone who is compassionate, has a can-do approach and excellent communication skills. Above all, you’ll be passionate about ensuring our residents received the best care possible.
What will you get in return?
You’ll be working for one of the largest not for profit care providers in the UK. A great advantage of being a large organisation is that we can offer competitive pay, generous benefits and training to reward you for taking such good care of our residents.
Here’s an overview of some of the benefits you could get for working for us:
- Company pension
- 28 days pro rata (including bank holidays), which increases to 33 after 5 years service
- Weekend rates of pay
- Company sick pay
- Free uniform
- Free DBS
- Free car parking
- Employee Assistance Programme, including a wealth of information in relation to health and wellbeing
- Refer a Friend bonus scheme paying £500 for recommendations
- “My Rewards” offering you discount on shopping, days out, restaurants and much more
Care is at the heart of everything that we do. Working within the Care team you will show warmth, compassion and support to our residents and their families; helping to promote independence and dignity and positively enhancing the lives of individuals in our care. Your daily routine will be as varied as the needs of people you are looking after. You will often be helping people to wash and dress, eat and drink, and go about their daily activities, but you will know what makes a difference to them and what helps to put a smile on their face.
The Government’s ‘Infection Control Fund’ (introduced as a result of the Coronavirus) requires Care homes to restrict permanent and temporary staff to working in only one care home, to help reduce the spread of the Coronavirus. As a result of this, if you already have another job elsewhere (either in Care or another sector) and you wish to continue working there alongside the Trust, unfortunately we would not be able to progress with your application at this time. Once the restrictions are lifted, please do not hesitate to re-apply for any of our roles that maybe of interest to you then.
Please apply today to join our care team.
