Looking for flexible work that fits around your lifestyle?
Rotherwood Cares is recruiting experienced Care Assistants to join our agency team, supporting a well-established Extra Care Housing service in Burnley.
Whether you're looking to top up your current income, work around other commitments or choose shifts that suit your schedule, we'd love to hear from you.
About The Role
You'll be supporting adults living independently within their own apartments, helping them maintain their independence while providing high-quality, person-centred care.
No two shifts are the same, and you'll become part of a friendly and supportive care team dedicated to delivering outstanding care.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
