Community Care Assistant – Dartford & Surrounding Areas

Part-time & full-time roles available | Make a real difference close to home

Are you someone who loves helping others start and end their day with confidence?

Join a growing home care team supporting older adults in Dartford, Bexley and West Gravesend — right where care matters most.

We believe the best care comes from happy, supported Care Assistants. That means:

  • You feel valued
  • You are listened to
  • You have time to do your job properly

If you want a career where kindness is your biggest strength — we'd love to hear from you.

What the Role Involves

Every visit is different, but the goal is always the same: to help someone live well at home.

You'll support with:

  • Personal care and daily routines
  • Medication reminders and mealtime support
  • Mobility and confidence with moving around the home
  • Light household tasks to keep things safe and comfortable
  • Companionship — because connection matters

You'll visit the same clients regularly so you can build trust and make a real impact.

What You'll Receive

  • £13.50 per hour
  • Double pay on peak days
  • Paid travel and waiting time
  • 35p per mile mileage allowance
  • Paid DBS (refunded after probation)
  • Earn while you train — fully paid induction & shadowing
  • Guaranteed hours (20 or 30 per week) after probation
  • £400 refer-a-friend reward
  • Opportunities to grow into Senior or Lead roles

And most importantly:

Minimum 1-hour visits — real time to care properly

Shifts & Flexibility

We provide care between 06:45 – 21:30, and we'll work with you to build a schedule that suits your life.

All we ask is every other weekend availability.

Who We're Looking For

  • Naturally caring, patient and reliable people
  • Drivers with access to a car and business insurance
  • Great communicators who enjoy helping others
  • Students, parents, retirees or career changers welcome
  • Right to work in the UK (sponsorship may be considered)

No experience needed — training and support are provided from day one.

Why Join Us?

Because here, you're never just another number.

You're part of a team that celebrates you, checks in on you, and helps you succeed.

Many of our Care Assistants have stayed for years and that says everything.
