Stourbridge, United Kingdom Home Instead Full time

Company Description

Part of the global Home Instead network, our office was established in 2012 and our mission is to brighten the lives of people living in our community. We take pride in what we do and are one of only 4% of UK care providers to be rated CQC outstanding.

**Job Description**:
Are you looking for an extra income? Maybe you are thinking about slowing down? Or even looking at doing something completely new? If this is you, then we have a wonderful part-time opportunity for you

We are currently looking for some enthusiastic individuals to join our team.

You do not need any previous experience to become part of our Home Instead family, you just need to be a caring and positive person with a full UK driving licence and access to a reliable car.

**Requirements**:

- You must have a big heart (and a big smile)
- You must be able to think on your feet it sometimes helps to be light on them too, some of our clients love a dance
- A good pair of eyes are essential - Clients might need to borrow yours when theirs aren’t so good.
- You will need to be a good listener, a lifetime’s worth of stories need to be heard.
- You should be able find joy in the little moments in life, there’s nothing quite like a cuppa made “just right”
- Although we don’t wear uniforms (our clients prefer it this way), you must be prepared to roll up your sleeves for any household tasks that may need carrying out.
- Being a good timekeeper is crucial, you should arrive on time, take your time to listen, take time to understand and take time to care - we measure time in hours, and each one matters.
- A GCSE in history is definitely not something that’s required, but helping a client relive their memories by flicking through a photo album together will be sure to make their day.
- Lastly, you’ll need to bring lots of patience, along with a good sense of humour. We’re a social bunch at Home Instead who love getting together for regular training (and parties) and we’ll always be there to support you no matter what.

If you tick some of these boxes, then a Care Professional job at Home Instead might tick yours.
