Company Description
Home Instead has arrived in Thornbury, Yate and Dursley - and we couldn’t be more excited!
As a trusted, award-winning home care provider with over 260 offices across the UK, we’re proud to be named the Leading Provider of Home Care in the 2024 Leaders in Care Awards, and the most recommended home care provider by Homecare.co.uk.
With over 10 years of experience managing two successful Home Instead branches in Wiltshire and Oxfordshire, we’re now bringing our high-quality, person-centred care to your community - and we’re looking for compassionate, reliable and caring people to join us as Care Professionals. We have immediate need across our territory which covers Thornbury and Yate, so if you're located nearby that would be ideal, and we also cover Dursley and everywhere in-between.
Job Description
We are looking for bubbly, chatty caring people to join our team of Care Assistant's to support our growing client base across Wotton-under-Edge, Thornbury, Dursley and all the surrounding areas.
Ideally, we would be looking for Care Assistant's who can work mornings due to our current client needs, but we are open to other availability.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
At Home Instead, we do things differently. We believe care should never be rushed, and relationships should be at the heart of everything we do. That’s why our visits are always at least one hour long, giving you the time to provide truly personal, quality care.
As a Care Assistant with us, every day is different, but your role will include:
- Providing companionship and emotional support
- Preparing meals and helping with daily routines
- Assisting with medication and personal care
- Supporting clients living with conditions such as dementia or those recovering from a stroke
- Assisting with clinical needs, such as changing compression stockings or supporting with catheter care

- £12.85- £13.50 per hour
- Double pay per hour on a bank holiday
- Paid travel time and mileage between clients
- Full, paid induction training and ongoing support
- Free Blue Light Card and access to a fuel card
