Make a difference in your community!
As one of our amazing Community Carers you will provide person-centred support that enables the individuals we support to remain as independent as possible and maintain their everyday skills, choices and routines.
Depending on an individual's care plan and needs, this may include supporting with personal care such as eating, dressing, washing, personal hygiene and using the toilet. Some aspects of the role may involve hands-on assistance, always delivered with dignity, respect and a focus on independence.
You will work across different community settings and as part of a supportive multidisciplinary team. You will have a planned workload and will work collaboratively with colleagues and other professionals, including effective handovers and access to a team "buddy" where appropriate.
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.
