The Role
We are looking for local domiciliary carers to assist our client with MND. You will be expected to work in rotation with another carer in the following pattern, week 1: 4 days on and 3 days off, week 2: 3 days on and 4 days off, completing 4-8 hours of work per day, dependent on the client's needs. You will still be paid the full daily rate even if you only work 4 hours.

Our client is a gentleman with MND who lives with his partner. They have a child and absolutely love their dogs. He is looking for carers who will come and assist with everyday living, moving and handling and to help him live his life as independently as possible. Our client and his partner also have a son who lives with them in a lovely home with the client's parents.

He is looking for a care assistant who is fun and outgoing, isn't afraid to own up to their mistakes and who can become somewhat of a friend. They all enjoy building Lego together and this is one of the many activities they still do as a family.

What HFH offers
Typically, our client base requires ongoing care, 24 hours a day, and benefits from the continuity of a small core team of regular care staff. Our specialist carers work with one client per shift and do not travel between multiple homes. The average shift is 12 hours.

Where possible we will offer you work to meet your availability and as a guide, the average carer works three shifts (36hrs) per week for us and earns £500-555 p/wk*. The regular working patterns that our clients require mean this three day a week work pattern equates to an average annual income of between £26,200-£28,950*.

We employ all staff directly and manage all aspects of your pay via PAYE, rather than Limited Company or Self-employed status. This removes the need to employ third party companies or calculate your own tax. PAYE also protects you from breaching IR35 tax regulations.

*Please note: This depends on their shift pattern (days/nights/weekends) and these rates shown are inclusive of holiday pay which is accumulated per hour worked.
