Care Assistant- Burnley (Driver)

We are looking for carers to work in the Burnley area on a rotating basis of 3 days in week one and four days in week two including weekends, 7am to 2pm and 4pm to 10pm, so you maintain a great work life balance and still generate a consistent income, which also helps ensure that you have consistent service users each week.

At Choice Care, we provide the best possible care and support for those that need it - including people coming to the end of life, those with dementia, sensory impairment, or physical difficulties – enabling our service users to live their own homes with dignity and enjoy the best possible quality of life.

Having care experience would be an advantage, but if you don’t have any experience you will complete our induction training led by our registered nurse, Gill. The initial induction training, which is paid, takes around two weeks so you have to be available and committed to completing that training. Gill also manages the ongoing paid training with a training session each month in the first year of working for us.

So if you wanted commitment from a care employer, this is the place to be.

We are a Preferred Provider for BWD Social Services and Lancashire county council we also provide care for the CCG as well as private clients. We are a family business and have been providing care in the area for 26 years.

Your pay rate will start at an hourly rate of £12.25 per hour. This will increase to £12.60 on completion of your 6 month probationary period.

If you have an NVQ Level 2 or above in Adult Social Care, you will go straight onto £13.00 per hour.

You MUST to be a driver with access to a car and able to work alternate weekends.

Sorry, but we cannot accept applicants looking for sponsorships.
