Job description

Our mission is to brighten the lives of seniors giving them a sense of purpose, wellbeing & worth. This role will play a vital part ensuring that our clients receive the best in class quality care and support the growth of our business.

Looking for a fulfilling part-time role where you can make a genuine difference?

Join our caring team at Home Instead and bring companionship and support to older adults in your community — one visit at a time.

We’re looking for warm, reliable people with a car and a few hours to spare each week. Whether you’re a parent, semi-retired, or simply someone who enjoys connecting with others, this role could be a perfect fit.

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Offering friendly conversation and companionship
  • Supporting with daily routines, errands, and meal preparation
  • Assisting with personal care when needed
  • Encouraging confidence and independence at home

Why Join Us?

  • Local visits – no long commutes
  • Flexible part-time hours to fit around your life
  • Pay from £13.05 to £13.55 per hour (including holiday entitlement)
  • Full paid training and ongoing support
  • A warm, supportive team that truly values you

You must be a driver with access to your own vehicle, as visits are within the community.

If you’d like to make a difference in someone’s life while working around your own commitments, we’d love to hear from you.

If you have a passion for caring and the motivation to help us achieve our ambitions, we would love to hear from you.

We encourage applications from all sections of the community as we want to reflect the neighbourhoods in which we work. Home Instead is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of adults and expects all staff to share this commitment. This role is subject to DBS enhanced disclosure.
