About Us:

Roseberry Care is a warm and welcoming community with over 1,500 dedicated professionals across 25 homes—from Morpeth to Milton Keynes. We support nearly 1,200 residents, offering everything from elderly and dementia care to care for younger adults with neurological or physical disabilities.

  • Liaise with GPs, healthcare professionals, and families

  • Act as a role model for quality, safety, and compassion in care delivery

What We’re Looking For:

  • Must hold a Care Home Assistant Practitioner Certificate (essential)
  • Experience as a Senior Carer or similar role in a care home environment
  • Confident with medication administration and clinical observations
  • NVQ Level 3 in Health & Social Care (or higher)
  • Excellent leadership and communication skills
  • A genuine passion for elderly care and team development

What You’ll Get in Return:

  • Supportive, friendly team environment
  • Genuine career progression across 25 care homes
  • Employee Assist Programme for mental health & well-being support
  • Go the Extra Mile (GEM) Awards – celebrating your amazing work
  • Employee Of The Month – Appreciating our employees
  • FlexEarn – access your earnings early for any extra shifts worked
