About Visiting Angels

Visiting Angels has been providing care across the world for 20 years. Our business has been built on recruiting, training and supporting the very best carers and enabling them to deliver premium quality care. We know that our caregivers are brilliant, loving, professional people doing amazing work that makes a real difference.

Too often care workers are under appreciated but at Visiting Angels we put our caregivers at the centre of our business to make sure they can deliver a truly person-centred service. We believe it is wrong that the people entrusted with looking after someone's family should be expected to do so for minimum wage. At Visiting Angels, we pay our caregivers much more to reflect the outstanding job that they do supporting our client's needs.

About You

You will be a genuinely caring person with great listening skills, outstanding empathy, a loving personality and the drive to make a difference to our client's lives. Your personality interests and character will be assessed and matched to that of our client. We know that we can never replace a family bond, but we do want you to approach care as if it is personal.

You must have your own vehicle with a full driving licence. We'd love to talk to you if you've never worked in care, but your skills are transferrable. We also know that if you've got care experience, you'll appreciate the difference it makes to put you at the centre of what we do.
