About the Role
Our client believes care is about people, not just tasks.
They are looking for compassionate, experienced Carers to join their growing team, providing high-quality, person-centred care to clients in their own homes across Dundee and the surrounding areas.
Unlike many care roles, their longer visits mean you have the time to truly care – time for conversation, companionship, reassurance, and helping people live safely and happily in the place they love most – their home.
This is a role where relationships matter, kindness matters, and the care you give really makes a difference.
Your Purpose
To deliver outstanding, person-centred care that promotes independence, dignity, choice, and wellbeing, while building meaningful and trusting relationships with the people you support.
Key Responsibilities
Personal Care:
Support with bathing, dressing and grooming.
Assist with medication reminders and/or administration (in line with training and policy).
Promote dignity, privacy and individual choice at all times.
Practical Support:
Light housekeeping and domestic tasks.
Meal preparation and nutritional support.
Helping maintain a safe, clean and comfortable home.
Social and Emotional Support:
Providing companionship and meaningful conversation.
Supporting social activities, outings and appointments.
Encouraging independence and community involvement.
Record Keeping and Communication:
Maintain accurate and up-to-date care records.
Report any changes or concerns promptly.
Work closely with the wider care team.
Compliance:
Follow company policies and procedures.
Work in line with safeguarding and adult protection guidance.
Adhere to Scottish Social Services Council Codes of Practice.
About You
Essential:
Minimum 2 years’ experience in a care role.
SVQ in Health and Social Care (or working towards).

Full UK driving licence.
