**What we are looking for**:

- Relevant community experience
- S/NVQ Level 2/3 qualification or an equivalent certificate/diploma is desirable
- Emotional strength and the ability to work on your own are crucial, though we will of course provide excellent on-going training and support
- UK driving licence & access to a vehicle are essential

**What’s in it for you**:

- Marie Curie Group Personal Pension Scheme
- Season ticket loan
- Loan schemes for bikes; computers and satellite navigation systems
- Continuous development
- Industry leading training programmes
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Flexible Working
- Generous enhancements:
88% x your basic salary per hour paid for Sundays and Public Bank Holidays

44% x your basic salary per hour paid for Saturdays & night duty (8pm to 6am)
