You have experience in an administrative role, ideally within a care setting or similar environment. You’re confident with IT systems, organised in your approach, and always ready to lend a helping hand. But most importantly, you bring kindness, discretion, and professionalism to everything you do.

About you:

You’re a team player who understands the importance of communication and confidentiality. You can manage priorities, meet deadlines, and remain calm and friendly in a busy environment. Whether it’s helping a colleague find a file or welcoming a family member into the home, you approach every task with care and courtesy.

If you’re ready to bring your skills to a place where you can truly make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.
