Are you the one your friends always turn to for a chat and a warm cup of tea? Do you have a heart of gold and a natural knack for making people smile? If you’re looking for a rewarding role that actually fits around your life - whether that means working around the school run, family commitments, or just finding a better work-life balance—we’d love to meet you!

Here at Abacare (Part of CCH Group) in Ebbw Vale, we are incredibly proud of our close-knit, supportive team. We believe that to provide extraordinary care to our clients, we must first take brilliant care of our people. That’s our "People First" promise.

What will you be doing?

You will be the highlight of someone’s day. As a Care Assistant, you’ll be visiting vulnerable adults in the Blackwood community in their own homes, helping them to maintain their independence and dignity. No two days are exactly the same, but your day might include:

• Helping someone get ready for the day with a bright 'good morning' (assisting with washing and dressing).
• Preparing a hearty breakfast or lunch.
• Prompting medication.
• Most importantly, providing a listening ear, a friendly chat, and a bit of much-needed companionship.

Qualifications

Do I need experience?

Not necessarily! Whether you’ve cared for a family member, raised a family of your own, or are just looking for a meaningful career change where your natural compassion can shine, we provide full, paid training to give you all the confidence you need.

Additional Information

What’s in it for you?

We know that to give your best, you need to feel valued. That’s why we offer:

• Fantastic Pay: £13.45 per hour and £13.55 weekend rate
• Mileage Allowance: Mileage paid to keep our drivers moving.
• No Car? No Problem! We have friendly, compact walking routes available, so walkers are warmly welcomed.
• Total Flexibility: Tell us when you are available to work, and we’ll build a rota that suits your lifestyle.
• Stability & Support: As part of the UK’s largest home care provider, you get the lovely, family-feel of our Ebbw Vale branch, fully backed by the resources, training, and stability of a national network.
