Please read the essential requirements before applying

We urgently need experienced female Live-in Care Assistants who can drive.

This position is open to female applicants only because the client has specifically requested a female care professional due to the personal and intimate nature of the care being provided. This is an occupational requirement permitted under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010.

You must hold a full UK driving licence and be confident and happy to drive the client wherever needed, including to appointments, activities, shopping trips and social outings.

You will not necessarily need to provide or use your own car, as a suitable vehicle may be available at the placement. However, being willing and able to drive the client is an essential requirement.

How live-in care works

This is a genuine live-in care position. During each placement, you will live in the client’s home from Monday to Sunday, with your own private room and appropriate daily breaks.

For our ongoing care packages, you must be able to complete a minimum two-week placement without returning home, normally working a two weeks on, two weeks off rotation.

We occasionally have one-week respite placements available, but these are not guaranteed. Applicants must therefore be prepared to work a minimum of two consecutive weeks for our ongoing packages.

You can be based anywhere in the UK, provided you are willing and able to travel to the client’s home. We pay agreed travel costs and mileage associated with getting to and from your placement.

In addition to your weekly pay, you will receive a £40 food allowance.

We are CCH. With 14,000 colleagues across 32 care companies, we have one purpose: to make sure no one in need of care is ever forgotten or left behind.

At Noble Live-In Care, part of CCH, we live by our values of Community, Courage and Heart. We’re looking for compassionate, capable and experienced people to join our nationwide live-in care team.

What you’ll do

As a Live-in Care Assistant, you’ll support your client to live safely, comfortably and independently in their own home.

You must be comfortable in the kitchen and able to plan and cook a range of nutritious everyday meals based on the client’s needs, dietary requirements and preferences.

Ready to apply?

If you’re an experienced female care assistant, hold a full UK driving licence and can commit to living with and supporting a client for at least two consecutive weeks, we’d love to hear from you.
