Looking for a rewarding part-time role where you can have fun, build meaningful relationships and make a real difference?
We’re looking for a bubbly, caring and flexible *female colleague to join our amazing #TeamBlackwood in Dundee on a permanent, part-time basis – 16 hours per week.
You’ll support two lovely ladies with complex support needs in their own home, helping them live life their way. No two days are the same, with activities ranging from baking, arts & crafts and music to swimming, walks and days out. You’ll also provide support with everyday tasks such as cooking, personal care, medication and household routines.
What we're looking for
You don’t need previous care experience – we recruit based on values and personality. Most importantly, you’ll be:
- Caring, compassionate and positive
- Friendly and a great team player
- Confident communicating with others
- Happy to get involved and try new things
- Comfortable swimming, as this is a regular activity
- Organised and willing to learn
A full driving licence and at least one year’s driving experience would be ideal, but it’s not a deal-breaker for the right person.
Why join Cornerstone
- A genuinely meaningful job where you can see the difference you make
- No uniform – come as you are
- Paid training and funded SVQ qualifications
- SSSC registration fees paid
- Up to £500 towards driving lessons
- 26 days annual leave + 4 paid bank holidays
- Career progression and ongoing development
- Employee discounts, wellbeing support and much more
- Family friendly leave options
Shift patterns
This role includes early mornings, days, evenings, sleepovers, weekends and public holidays on a rotational basis.
😴 Sleepover payments
Our sleepovers are separate from your contracted hours, so you’ll receive an additional payment of £107.60 for every sleepover you work - giving you the opportunity to earn extra alongside your contracted hours.
If you’re warm, caring and ready to be part of something that really matters, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today!
