Choosing a career with HCC Care means joining one of our friendly, committed and supportive teams, as well as being part of the largest care provider in Hampshire. You’ll have access to a wealth of rewarding career choices, whatever your skills and experience.

We are looking for a Senior Care Worker who shares our culture of care, respect and independence. We offer a varied and fast paced setting that will support you to grow and develop as a social care professional. If this sounds like the opportunity for you, come and join our friendly and supportive team.

You’ll contribute to and participate in the smooth running of the unit and you’ll shift lead in the absence of the Nurse. You’ll also work within our established team to contribute to the development of care plans for people who use our service, ensuring we continually offer a person centred approach. You’ll effectively lead, motivate and support staff to promote person centred care and ensure that resident’s needs are met.

Ideally, you’ll have experience of working with older adults in a residential or nursing setting. We provide 24 hour care to our service users so you will need the flexibility to work shift patterns, which include weekend working. NQV Level 3 would be advantageous but not essential as the opportunity to study towards this qualification will be available.

In return for your hard work and commitment we offer a warm and supportive working environment, access to Local Government Pension Scheme, generous annual leave entitlement, flexible working and other great benefits.

Full COVID-19 vaccination status is no longer required as a condition of employment but being fully vaccinated is strongly encouraged.

What we can offer you:

Hampshire County Council cares for those who care and we recognise the outstanding contribution you make to people’s lives. In return, we offer a commitment to your development and wellbeing, enabling you to be the best nurse you can possibly be. This is offered alongside a competitive benefits package, which also includes:

• Flexible working to help you find your perfect work-life balance.
• NMC revalidation funding.
• A range of CPD activities that will not only support your NMC registration but allow you to continually upskill and excel.
