Time to Care – Because Care Should Never Be Rushed

No rushed visits. No cutting corners. Just unhurried, personalised care, the way it should be done.

Most care roles rush you from door to door, leaving you feeling like you haven't really helped anyone.  With one hour visit s at Home Instead South Lakes, every visit is tailored to the client, unhurried, meaningful and built around what matters to them.

And here's something you won't find everywhere, we match you to clients based on shared interests. That means genuine connections and relationships that make a difference to both of you.

It's why our people don't just turn up. They show up proud.

You are paid for the full hour with travel pay on top!

So what does the role look like?

Every day is different, and every day matters.

You might help someone with their morning routine, sit down for a proper cuppa and a catch up, prepare a meal, support with medication, or enjoy a gentle walk together. Every visit is shaped around the person, their preferences, their routines and what makes them feel most like themselves.

These aren't small things to the people you visit. They are everything.

No experience? You’re still exactly who we’re looking for.

We believe life experience is just as valuable as work experience. Whether you’ve built transferable skills in hospitality or another people focused role, or you’re ready for a new purpose now your children have flown the nest, you could be a perfect fit.

If you’re warm, reliable and genuinely care about people, you already have what it takes. We’ll support you with everything else. Training is fully funded and starts from day one.

UK right to work required. Full UK driving licence and reliable transport essential.
