What You’ll Do

  • Support people with personal care, health needs, and daily living tasks
  • Help individuals express themselves and make choices that matter to them
  • Encourage hobbies, interests, and community activities
  • Build strong relationships with families, friends, and professionals
  • Keep homes safe, clean, and comfortable
  • Work flexibly across services—including evenings, weekends, and overnight shifts
  • Maintain accurate records and contribute to reviews and team meetings
  • Promote health, safety, and uphold quality standards

What You’ll Need

  • A kind heart and a compassionate mindset
  • A sense of humour and a resilient attitude
  • Great communication skills and a team spirit
  • Willingness to work flexibly, including unsociable hours
  • Respect for diversity and individual needs
  • Ability to maintain accurate records and meet deadlines
  • A satisfactory DBS check
  • Experience in care or support (voluntary or paid) – desirable but not essential
  • Care Certificate or NVQ Level 2 in Health & Social Care – desirable but not essential

Why Join Us?

When you join Peabody, you’re joining a team guided by our values:
Be Kind, Do the Right Thing, Love New Ideas, Celebrate Diversity, Keep Our Promises, and Pull Together.
We believe in creating a workplace where everyone feels supported, included, and empowered.

What We Offer

  • 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays
  • Two paid volunteering days each year
  • Flexible benefits scheme and discount portal
  • Life assurance at 4x your salary
  • Up to 10% pension contribution
  • Paid training and development opportunities
  • Employee assistance programme
  • Staff recognition schemes

Please Read Before Applying

This role follows a 24/7 working pattern, which includes sleep ins, weekends, and bank holidays. You’ll need to be flexible and ready to support people when they need you most.

If this sounds like we are right for you and you’d love to be part of Peabody, we’d like to hear from you.
Please apply now by submitting an anonymised CV and a short statement explaining why you’re the perfect fit for this role.
