Willowbrook Care Home provides specialist support for up to 75 residents living with dementia and mental health needs. With a strong sense of community and a focus on person-centred care, we are proud to offer a warm, supportive environment where residents feel safe, respected, and truly at home.

We are now looking for a reliable and compassionate Care Assistant to join our close-knit team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with at least 12 months of experience who is committed to making a meaningful impact.

Unfortunately, we cannot consider candidates on sponsorship or those seeking 20-hour contracts, as these arrangements do not meet the needs of the home.

• Paid DBS, pension scheme, free uniform and onsite parking
• 5.6 weeks annual leave (based on a full-time contract)

Your Role

As a Care Assistant, you will support residents with their day-to-day routines, always promoting dignity, independence and wellbeing. You will follow individual care plans, provide emotional and social support, assist with meals, mobility, and personal care, and help maintain a clean, safe and welcoming environment. Working closely with nurses, housekeepers and fellow carers, you will play a vital role in ensuring each resident feels respected, heard and cared for.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone with a minimum of 12 months’ experience as a Care Assistant. An NVQ Level 2 in Health and Social Care is preferred, along with a genuine passion for care and a commitment to delivering a high standard of support. You will be a team player with strong communication skills and a kind, reliable approach to your work.

Willowbrook Care Home is part of Care Concern Group, a family-owned, market-leading care provider with over 100 homes across the UK. We are committed to creating warm, inclusive environments where residents receive outstanding care, and our staff are supported, valued, and encouraged to develop.

Our five core values — Trust, Respect, Passion, Kindness, and Inclusivity — are at the heart of everything we do. If you share these values and want to be part of a team where your efforts truly make a difference, we would love to hear from you.
