Shift Pay (Not Pay-Per-Call)

Pay: £13.30 per hour (drivers) | £12.75 per hour (walkers) Contract: Full-time and part-time (walkers) available, permanent Location: BD7 - Great Horton, Bradford

Are you a naturally caring person?

Some poeple come to care through qualifications. Others come through personal experience - through experiencing the importance of showing up for someone, of listening properly, and of making a difficult day feel a little easier.

At Be Caring, we believe both paths lead to great Care Workers. If you're kind, reliable and ready to make a difference in Great Horton, we'd love to hear from you.

Please note: due to the personal nature of the support, this role is open to female applicants only (in line with the Equality Act 2010). The successful applicant will be supporting both male and female clients.
