Whether you've supported a loved one or simply enjoy helping others, you already have the foundations to become a great Care Assistant.

At Be Caring, we believe great care starts with great people. If you're kind, reliable and want to make a real difference in people's lives, we'd love to welcome you to our team at Village 135 - a purpose-built extra care scheme in the heart of Wythenshawe.

Village 135 is an extra care scheme where older people live independently in their own flats - with the reassurance of a care team on-site around the clock.

As a night shift Care Assistant, you'll be based entirely on-site. There's no travelling between calls - just one building, a consistent group of people you'll get to know well, and the satisfaction of knowing they're safe because you're there.
