Full-Time Community Care Assistant
Female Applicants Only | Full UK Driving Licence Essential
Empowering Lives Through Compassionate Care
Founded in 2005, Bradcare has proudly supported individuals and families across South Derbyshire for over 20 years. Our mission is simple: to help people live independently, safely and comfortably in the place they cherish most – their own home.
We are currently recruiting caring, reliable and committed individuals to join our growing team as Full-Time Community Care Assistants.
Due to the nature of the intimate personal care provided, this position is open to female applicants only, in accordance with the genuine occupational requirement provisions of the Equality Act 2010.
About the Role
As a Community Care Assistant, you will provide high-quality, person-centred care to individuals within their own homes. Every visit is an opportunity to make a real difference, helping people remain independent whilst receiving the support they need with dignity and respect.
You will work as part of a supportive, professional team delivering care tailored to each individual's needs, preferences and lifestyle.
This is a full-time position, offering a regular and varied schedule across a range of care visits, including:
- Morning shifts
- Lunchtime shifts
- Tea-time and evening shifts
- Weekend working as part of the care rota, weekend on weekend off basis
- Emergency cover where required
- Additional hours where available
Where possible, care rounds are allocated geographically to minimise travel time and support a positive work-life balance.
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.
