Position Overview & Specifications

We are currently looking for passionate, caring individuals who want to progress their career in care or take the first step into this fulfilling area.

The salary for this role is £18,525, which equates to £9.50 per hour (not including annual leave).

The Role

MTVH can provide full training to you if you have the desire and compassion to support older people to meet their personal needs with dignity and to live a full and included life.

You will be joining our care and support team supporting customers who live in our Extra Care services in Cricketers Court, Nottingham. Although you will have a named base, there is an understanding that some shift hours may be worked in other services, giving variety.

All the customers are older people, and you will support them to maintain a dignified standard of living and to live as independently as possible. Supporting our customers with their personal care needs is required but your focus is on encouraging inclusion and to be a significant support to our customers.

This training will ensure you provide personalised care and support services to our customers with dignity.

  • You will demonstrate you understand what good support looks like which is appropriate to the age, gender, disability, race, religion, and sexuality of the customer to improve their quality of life and independence.

What’s in it for you?

Our benefits include:-

  • 28 days annual leave plus 8 bank holidays (pro rata for part time) per year
  • 2 volunteering days per year for things like helping out in local communities
  • An additional ‘Beliefs day’ once a year to have an extra a day off
  • Enhanced pension with matched contributions of up to 9%
  • Life assurance cover 3 x your salary
