Where You'll Work
Village 135 is an extra care scheme where older people live independently in their own flats - with the reassurance of a care team on-site around the clock.
As a night shift Care Assistant, you'll be based entirely on-site. There's no travelling between calls - just one building, a consistent group of people you'll get to know well, and the satisfaction of knowing they're safe because you're there.

£13.45 per hour
Night shift: 9:00pm – 8:00am

What You'll Be Doing
Extra care is different from traditional homecare. The people you support live in their own homes within the scheme, and your role overnight is to be there when they need you - providing planned care, responding to calls, and making sure everyone feels safe and settled through the night.
