Willow Senior Care is looking for reliable Care Assistants to join our established home-care team, supporting people in their own homes within an 8-mile radius of Rugeley.

What we offer
- Guaranteed contracted hours
- £13.00 – £13.50 per hour for care time
- Travel time paid at £12.71 per hour
- 35p per mile mileage allowance
- Small local working area – within an 8-mile radius of Rugeley
- Regular rota
- Full training and ongoing support
- Established local care team
Different working patterns available
We have several contracted working patterns available and are happy to discuss which would suit you best.
Early Morning Care
Approximately 7:00am–10:30am
Ideal for someone who enjoys an early start and would like the rest of their day free.
3, 4 or 5 mornings per week may be available.
Morning & Lunch Care
Approximately 7:00am–2:00pm
Covering our morning and lunchtime care runs, with a break between runs.
Tea-Time Care
Approximately 3:15pm–6:00pm
A shorter afternoon/evening working pattern that may suit someone looking for regular part-time hours.
Evening Care
Approximately 6:15pm–9:45pm
Regular evening work supporting our service users with their evening and bedtime care.
Tea & Evening Care
Approximately 3:15pm–9:45pm
Covering both our tea-time and bedtime care runs, with a short break between runs.
Core Care Assistant
For applicants looking for more hours, contracts of approximately 20–30 hours per week may be available across a combination of our care runs.
We can discuss the number of days and preferred working pattern with you at interview.
What we ask from you
All contracted Care Assistants are required to work alternate weekends as part of their regular rota.
You will be visiting people in their own homes, so you must be dependable, comfortable working independently and able to travel between service users throughout our local area.
Previous care experience is welcomed but not essential, as full training can be provided.
If you're looking for a permanent local care role where you know your working pattern, receive guaranteed hours and paid travelling time, and don't want to spend your working day travelling across a huge geographical area, we'd love to hear from you.
