We are on a mission to reinvent the future of care, so communities are supported to thrive, and all members of the care ecosystem are valued. We are thrilled to be recognised as winners at the 2026 Home Care Awards with the GOLD award for Most Outstanding Independent Homecare Provider, Best for Recruitment, Retention and Staff Motivation & Best for Sustainability Initiative, and we'd love to hear from you!

Despite unprecedented demand, the care sector is under-resourced, stigmatised and undervalued. Demand continues to accelerate, far outstripping supply. The root cause is that people don’t like the roles on offer in the current time-and-task, command-and-control model of delivering care. This crisis shows no sign of slowing. At BelleVie we are treating the root causes of the care crisis, through a radical new way of working which is built on strong communities, thriving relationships and technology that drives efficiencies, resulting in better outcomes for all. We are bringing life and energy back to the care sector. Our teams build communities that care and focus on people, not tasks. We care about people’s needs, hopes, desires and fears. Care is about supporting a life well lived, it’s work with meaning, not just a job. Inspired by the success of the Dutch Buurtzorg model, BelleVie operates self-managing teams of care workers who work together to serve their local neighbourhood. This innovative and new model is enabled and scaled by our proprietary Wellbeing OS technology platform and funded by a monthly subscription. BelleVie has already achieved great success since launching in 2019, with 83% of supported families highly recommending us and multiple national awards to our name. Do you naturally have a “coaching” rather than “managing” style? Do you have experience of leading high quality services in care? Do you find joy in making a difference in the lives of care workers as well as those receiving care? Are you experienced in, or curious about, new models of care such as self-management and outcomes-based ways of working? We are currently growing, so we are looking for a Practice Coach to mentor and develop our Care Workers to deliver the highest standards of person centred care and to thrive in self managing teams.
