Why Right at Home Ipswich Woodbridge & Felixstowe is different:

Many care visits can feel rushed. Ours don't. We are proud to be rated as "Outstanding" by the CQC. Our care inspector said: “People were at the very heart of the service... the philosophy and values were shared across the staff team.”

We Offer You:

• Work-Life Balance: Whether you want 12 or 40 hours a week, we work with you to fit around your life commitments.
• Premium Pay: Earn £16.00–£17.00 per hour, plus a mileage allowance to ensure your travel is well-compensated.
• Career Prospects: We don't just offer a job; we offer a career path with access to quality training and learning.
• Ongoing Support: Following training, you will 'shadow' experienced team members or have a personal introduction to new clients.
• Excellent training: to ensure that you are happy and confident in your role. "The training is superb." – Current Care Team Member

So, you don't have a care background?

You don’t need a formal care background, just a caring nature. You might even have personal experience of caring for a loved one. We often find that people from Retail, Hospitality, Hairdressing, or Cleaning sectors have perfect transferable skills. Or you may be a HCA or Carer already and looking for a caring employer! Whatever you are doing right now, being part of our team is very likely more rewarding!

The Role:

We support mainly older adults in our local community, to live independently in their own homes. Your day might include:

• Companionship - you might be the only person your client will see that day.
• Assisting with light housekeeping to keep the environment tidy, safe, and comfortable.
• Helping with routines and personal care.
• Preparing meals or shopping.
• Accompanying clients to appointments or outings.

All we ask is that you:

• Have a caring nature and want to help others.
• Hold a full UK or EU/EEA driving licence and have your own vehicle.
• Are reliable and can work an agreed pattern. That pattern is negotiable, and could be for example - weekends ONLY; weekends PLUS some evenings; every OTHER weekend PLUS some daytime visits; OR every OTHER weekend PLUS some evenings.
