Care Assistant (part time)

A unique care role: join our visiting care team in Richmond, London

We are seeking a Part-Time Care Assistant in Richmond for a fulfilling daily commitment. This role requires 4 hours per day Tuesday to Friday and is ideal for someone, like a student, or professional with other part-time work, who needs a reliable schedule that fits around other commitments.

We need someone lively and engaged to provide daily break cover for our client's live-in team. This is a live-out role focused on enriching the client's day, not traditional homecare.

The shift is 4 hours, seven days a week - this could be split between two people. While we have standard times (typically midday/early afternoon or late afternoon/early evening), we are open to discussing adjustments to the start and end times to accommodate your existing commitments.

The role:
Our client is an engaging individual with a strong sense of humour who thrives on creative activity. Your role is to plan and execute meaningful, focused sessions that keep them engaged and active.

Your daily activities will centre on companionship and hands-on projects, including:

- Baking treats in the home kitchen
- Leading arts and crafts projects
- Dedicated music time and creative pursuits
- Providing attentive, stimulating companionship during the break period

Essential Requirements:

This role is supportive, but requires a specific skill set. To be considered, you must have professional experience supporting individuals with:

- Learning Disabilities
- Epilepsy: You must be prepared to monitor for, and calmly respond to, any needs or incidents that arise

We are looking for someone reliable, creative, punctual, and empathetic who can build a genuine, long-term rapport

Why Join Our Team?
-You are joining an established, highly professional care organisation. Even in a short part-time role, we prioritise our staff's well-being and stability:

- Excellent Hourly Rates: Earn £14.50 (weekday) to £16.50 (weekend) per hour, plus paid holiday allowance and double pay on Bank Holidays
- Dedicated Support: You will have a dedicated Care Manager and access to a robust Employee Assistance Programme for well-being
- A Culture of quality: Join a team consistently rated highly for its supportive management and commitment to care expertise

If this unique opportunity to provide enriching, part-time support in Richmond appeals to you, we encourage you to apply.
