Careers

Companionship work, done properly.

We are building a small team of dependable, observant Home Support & Companionship Assistants who take the work seriously and treat every home as someone's whole life.

What we offer

  • A structured in-house induction covering safeguarding, confidentiality, lone working and home safety
  • Ongoing training, supervision and spot checks
  • Realistic rotas with travel time considered
  • A named office contact and out-of-hours support
  • Consistent clients, so you build real relationships
  • Support to progress into senior and coordinating roles

What we look for

  • Reliability and good timekeeping
  • Patience, warmth and respect for privacy
  • Clear written and spoken communication
  • Right to work in the UK and willingness to complete an enhanced DBS check
  • A driving licence and access to a vehicle is an advantage
  • Experience is welcome; the right attitude matters more

What the role is not

This is a non-regulated role. Our assistants provide companionship and practical help only — they do not carry out personal care, administer medicines, or undertake nursing or clinical tasks. If those are needed, they are provided by a regulated provider or health service and we work alongside them.

Safe recruitment, without exception.

Every applicant completes a structured interview, identity and right-to-work checks, an enhanced DBS check and reference checks before working unsupervised. This protects our clients and the people who work for us.
