Could you be the home care assistant in York we’re looking for?

Our amazing home care assistants are roll-your-sleeves-up, supportive, positive, honest, warm and committed kind of people. The kind of people who love to help others get the most out of life. Sound like you?

You’ll be caring for older people in their own homes, supporting them in all sorts of ways. From taking them out and about to doing the weekly shop, and from medication support to personal and dementia care, it’s all similar to what you’d expect for your own family and loved ones.

You don’t need any previous experience to join our Radfield Home Care team in York as a home care assistant. You’ll get all the training you need. You will need a UK driver’s licence, be over the age of 18 and have access to a vehicle.

We’d also love to hear from you if you’ve got previous care experience in roles such as caregiver, care home assistant, care worker, support worker, healthcare assistant, home care assistant, carer and care home worker.

We’re proud to Care for our Carers

We offer all the things you’d expect. Like flexible working hours, paid mileage and travel time. And some things you might not expect, like the fact we pay – you won’t find that with all providers. You also get an MOT test each year, company paid holiday, sick pay scheme, pension entitlement, free DBS check and free uniform

We are one of the very few Living Wage Foundation employers in York.
