Care Support Worker – Help People Live Their Best Lives Every Day

Do you love making a difference? Are you the kind of person who brings warmth, energy, and compassion wherever you go? As a Care Support Worker at Peabody, you’ll be a vital part of someone’s journey—helping them live independently, confidently, and joyfully.

Whether it’s supporting with daily routines, encouraging hobbies, or simply being a kind presence, you’ll help people feel safe, heard, and empowered. This is a role where your care truly counts—and where every day brings new opportunities to brighten someone’s life.

What You’ll Do

  • Support people with personal care, health needs, and daily living tasks
  • Help individuals express themselves and make choices that matter to them
  • Encourage hobbies, interests, and community activities
  • Build strong relationships with families, friends, and professionals
  • Keep homes safe, clean, and comfortable
  • Work flexibly across services—including evenings, weekends, and overnight shifts
  • Maintain accurate records and contribute to reviews and team meetings
  • Promote health, safety, and uphold quality standards

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.
