Want a career with flexible hours where you can make a difference, every single day?
Where you can give someone dignity, keep them independent in their own home and be proud that you’re giving back to your community?
Could you work in social care?
Be a people person
You’ll need to be kind, patient and compassionate and able to chat with a wide range of people so good communication skills are important.
Care work can sometimes be challenging so you’ll also need to be resilient as well as reliable and trustworthy.
As long as you’re 19 or over and fit enough to cope with the physical demands of the job, you can be a care worker; people of all ages are welcome.
Getting started
You don’t need qualifications or experience in care to get started. If you’re looking to launch a career or wanting a career change and you have the right qualities for the job, we can provide all the training you need. We also offer taster shifts so you can find out if care work is the right choice for you before taking up a post.
Getting back in
If you have already completed training in care or have a level one qualification in Health and Social Care but you’re not currently working in care, have taken time out to raise a family or are unemployed, let us help you get back into the profession.
Our care providers work right across the city and have vacancies all year round so we can match you with the right job in the right place. The work is flexible enough to fit around other commitments in your life.
Getting on
Salford care providers care about their workforce and know your personal development and career is important. There are always development and progression opportunities, and you could move up into managing your own team.
