Care Assistant – Leatherhead

£13.80–£15.00 per hour weekdays | £14.80–£16.00 weekends | Paid travel time

Leatherhead & surrounding areas

Join Trinity Homecare as a Care Assistant and help people continue living safely and independently in their own homes.

We're looking for caring, reliable people based in and around Leatherhead to join our local care team.

This is a visiting care role, so you'll need a full UK driving licence, your own car and be comfortable travelling between local areas to support our clients.

When we need you

We're looking for Care Assistants who can offer:

• Weekday availability across mornings and/or evenings

• Alternate weekends

• Flexibility to travel between clients across our service area

We'll discuss your availability during the recruitment process and how this matches the hours our clients need.

Your pay

• Weekdays (Monday–Friday): £13.80–£15.00 per hour

• Weekends (Saturday–Sunday): £14.80–£16.00 per hour

• Travel time between clients: £13.80 per hour

• Mileage paid between client visits

Where you'll work

Although this vacancy is advertised in Leatherhead, this is a mobile community-based role rather than a position based in one location.

You'll visit clients in their own homes across Leatherhead and the surrounding areas, travelling between locations depending on where care is needed.

We'll discuss our current client locations, the travel involved and how this fits with your availability during the recruitment process.

What you'll be doing

You'll provide personalised support that helps clients remain safe, comfortable and as independent as possible in their own homes.

Your visits could include:

• Companionship and conversation

• Personal care and helping clients get ready for their day

• Preparing meals and supporting with medication

• Shopping and light household tasks

• Accompanying clients to appointments or activities

• Encouraging independence and wellbeing

• Following individual care plans and recording the support you provide

Every client is different, and you'll get to know the people you support, their routines and what's important to them.

What we're looking for

Previous care experience is welcome, but it isn't essential. We'll provide the training and support you need.

You'll need to be:

• Caring, patient and compassionate

• Reliable and comfortable working independently

• A good communicator

• Available during the week and on alternate weekends

• Comfortable travelling around Leatherhead and the surrounding areas

• A full UK driving licence holder with access to your own car

• Eligible to work in the UK

What you'll receive

• Paid travel time between clients

• Mileage paid between client visits

• 28 days' annual leave pro rata

• Free DBS check and uniform

• Ongoing training and development (employed carers)

• Refer-a-Friend bonus of up to £350

• Employee benefits and recognition
