Support Worker - Working with the Elderly/Car Essential

Home Instead is the world’s leading provider of non-medical care and companionship services for older people. With minimum visits of one hour, award winning paid training, and an excellent reputation, we are immensely proud of the quality of care we provide. 

The Welwyn & Hatfield office are now looking to recruit people who live in Borehamwood, Hatfield, Potter's Bar and Welwyn areas, and who are looking to ultimately make a career working within the Adult Care Sector- this is your chance to join the fastest growing service industry in the UK, and the leading provider of care to the elderly.

We are now seeking people to work with our elderly clients and can negotiate with you your availability - tell us what suits you, and let us work our magic (within reason).

We are also very happy to speak to people looking for a couple of hours work each day, including weekend's - so if you are retired, bored, in need of extra income, looking for new friends, or keen to give something back, then give us a call. 

We do require all staff work their agreed hours on alternate weekends - essential.

You must be passionate about what you do, with your own car - essential because we travel between clients and 'drive them to appointments' on a daily basis. You must also have a full British Driving Licence.

You must have the Right to Work in the UK and this will be established later during any recruitment process. We are currently NOT licenced to sponsor people and are unable to use people currently sponsored by other companies.

Home Instead prides itself on the quality and level of care we provide for our older clients and are now looking to recruit people who share our pride in providing a superior service.

If you simply want a job for a few hours a week or are looking for your entry into a fabulous career in Adult Care then look no further than Home Instead, Welwyn & Hatfield Office.

You will work with a highly experienced team whose goal in life is to ensure that you are highly trained, cared for in your role and who can also offer you hours of work that hopefully will suit your availability.
