We are CCH. With 14,000 colleagues across 32 care companies, we have one purpose: to make sure no one in need of care is ever forgotten or left behind. We’re not only changing lives, we’re transforming the care sector. Our people-first approach puts care professionals at the centre of everything we do. Our goal is simple: to be the best place to work in care.

  • 135 internal promotions were earned in just 12 months
  • Every Operational Director began their career as a care professional

At Independent Community Care Management (ICCM), part of CCH, we live by our values of Community, Courage, and Heart and we’re looking for like-minded people to join our growing Complex Care team in Northampton.

What you’ll do

We are seeking a caring and dedicated Complex Care Assistant to support our 19-year-old client as part of a 2:1 care package in her family home.

  • Personal care
  • PEG feeding and medication administration
  • Seizure monitoring and management
  • Moving and handling
  • Suctioning (as required)
  • Engaging in sensory play, arts and crafts, story time, and outings

We’re looking for someone who brings energy, empathy, and enthusiasm to every shift. If you’re someone who values building meaningful relationships, enjoys creative play and engaging activities, and can deliver attentive, high-quality care - we’d love to hear from you.

To be successful in this role, you’ll need to be a non-smoker, comfortable working in a home with a pet dog, and available for both weekday and weekend day shifts.

This is a fantastic opportunity to grow your skills and become part of a team that makes a real difference.
