We will ensure you are rewarded for all your hard work, which is why we offer a comprehensive benefits package that includes, but is not limited to:

  • £13.00 per hour.
  • Full time 35.5 hours. Shifts will be between the hours of 8 am and 8 pm. We operate a two week rolling rota.
  • Working alternate weekends.
  • Contributory pension scheme.
  • Confidential, supportive Employee Assistance Programme, accessible 24/7.
  • Paid comprehensive learning and development opportunities so we can invest in your future – including internal leadership competency sessions and recognised qualifications (level 2 to level 5 NVQ in Health & Social Care).
  • You can complete your Care Certificate with us.
  • Access to attractive and exclusive employee benefits, including savings on shopping, leisure, and household expenses.
  • A generous referral scheme.
  • What you’ll be doing:

  • All aspects of personal care, feeding, cooking, some cleaning, and key working.
  • You will be required to operate hoists and will have previous experience of doing this.
  • Supporting with activities and interests both within the service and out in the community.
  • Epilepsy training will be given; however, previous experience is required.
  • Providing person centred care.
  • Who you are:

  • You will have a minimum of 1 year of experience working within the social care sector.

  • You will have previous experience in operating hoists.
  • You have the ability and passion to support the individual needs of our residents, providing high quality, person centred care.
  • An NVQ level 2 or above in health and social care would be preferable but not essential; if you don’t have this, then you will have a willingness to achieve.
  • Who we are:

    We are a national provider of health, social and education services with over 35 years’ experience. Our employees are the driving force behind the fantastic care and support being delivered to hundreds of adults and children across the UK. Our teams are purposeful, positive, and progressive. They work hard to empower the people we support to have a voice, achieve their goals, and change their lives. We are always looking for committed, pro-active and passionate people to join us and create even more opportunities for the people we support. Join our team and have the satisfaction of knowing you’ve changed someone’s life and, in return for your hard work and passion we can give you real meaning and purpose in your work.

    Potens is committed to safeguarding and promotes the welfare of the people we support throughout our facilities. All applicants will be subject to robust pre-employment checks prior to appointment; including but not exhaustive; enhanced DBS, and a minimum of two satisfactory references. Our checks will be service and role specific and can be discussed pre application if required.

    Diversity

    We champion diversity, and we understand the importance of our teams representing the communities and people we support. Here at Potens, you’ll find an inclusive environment where you can be yourself and where everyone is driven by the same purpose – helping people live independently, healthier, happier lives and doing our part to make a better working environment where all feel welcome and supported.
