Care Jobs in North & West Yorkshire

Home Care Assistant: Ilkley & Burley in Wharfedale

We are looking for kind, dependable people who genuinely want to make a difference to someone’s day.

Care is not simply completing a list of tasks. It is noticing when someone seems quieter than usual, taking time to listen, remembering how they like their cup of tea and helping them remain safe, comfortable and independent in their own home.

You do not need previous care experience. What matters most is that you are compassionate, reliable and treat people with the dignity and respect you would want for someone you love. We will provide the training and support you need.

Location: Ilkley and Burley in Wharfedale
Pay: £13.50 to £15.20 per hour
Driving licence: preferred

What the Role Involves

  • Supporting people with personal care in a respectful and sensitive way
  • Helping with medication, meals and everyday household tasks
  • Providing companionship and reassurance
  • Encouraging independence rather than taking over
  • Noticing and reporting changes in a person’s wellbeing
  • Building trusted relationships with clients and their families
  • Keeping accurate care records
  • Travelling between clients’ homes

We Would Love to Hear From You If You Are

  • Naturally caring, patient and respectful
  • Dependable and able to arrive when someone is expecting you
  • A good listener who takes time to understand each person
  • Comfortable supporting people with different needs
  • Willing to learn and work as part of a supportive team
  • Looking for work that has real purpose

A driving licence and access to a vehicle are preferred because our clients live in different local communities.

What We Offer

  • Full induction and ongoing training
  • Support from an experienced local management team
  • Regular hours and an agreed work schedule
  • Enhanced pay for evenings and weekends
  • Mileage payments between visits
  • Opportunities to gain recognised care qualifications
  • Career progression for people who want to develop
  • Company pension and referral programme
  • The chance to become an important and trusted part of someone’s life

We are a local service, and we believe good care begins with looking after both our clients and our team. If you are looking for meaningful work where kindness, patience and reliability truly matter, we would be pleased to hear from you.
