Company Description

At Home Instead West Leicestershire & Market Bosworth, we believe care is about building meaningful relationships. Through our unique matching process, we carefully pair Clients and Care Professionals based on shared interests, personalities, hobbies, and backgrounds. This helps create trusted relationships, consistency, and companionship that truly make a difference.

We are currently expanding our team and looking for caring, compassionate Care Professionals to support older adults living independently in their own homes across the local community.

If you are kind-hearted, reliable, and passionate about helping others, we would love to hear from you.

Available Hours

We currently have vacancies available for:

  • Early Mornings: from 06:45am
  • Daytimes
  • Evenings: 16:45 – 22:00
  • Weekends

Immediate starts are available following completion of training, successful DBS checks, and receipt of four satisfactory references.

What Does the Role Involve?

As a Care Professional, no two days are the same. You will provide person-centred support tailored to each client’s needs while promoting dignity, independence, and wellbeing.

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.
