Job Description

🌟 Support Independence. Build Confidence. Make a Real Impact. 🌟

Now Recruiting: Reablement Care Assistants Stevenage & Surrounding areas

We’re looking for compassionate, reliable people to join our team as Reablement Care Assistants.

This role is about much more than providing support — it’s about helping people rebuild confidence, regain daily skills, and restore independence in their own homes.

Every visit makes a difference: from enabling someone to cook a meal again, to supporting them back on their feet after hospital discharge. If you want to see the direct results of your care and celebrate small but powerful milestones with clients, this role is for you.

💷 Pay Rates – Paid Per Full Shift

We believe great work deserves great pay – and that’s why our carers are paid for the full shift, not just contact time:

£14.20 per hour – Monday to Friday

£16.00 per hour – Saturday & Sunday

Looking for stable, rewarding work with flexibility that fits your lifestyle? We’ve got you covered! Enjoy regular, consistent hours and get paid for your full shift — not just visits.

🌟 Guaranteed Hours for the Right Candidates! 🌟

We’re looking for reliable, friendly people who can be fully flexible across all shift patterns, including weekends. If you’re ready to join a supportive team that truly values your time and effort, we’d love to hear from you! 🙌

📍 We’re hiring across all areas of Stevenage — including Great Ashby, Chells, Broadwater, Old Town, and Poplars, with opportunities nearby in Knebworth and Little Wymondley too!

🚗 Requirements

Full UK driving licence

Access to a vehicle (essential for travel between clients)
