Great Care Starts with Great People. Great Teams Need Great Leaders.

Acomb Manor is preparing to welcome its very first residents, and we're looking for compassionate and experienced Senior Care Assistants to join our founding team.

As part of the trusted St Mary's Care Group, we're creating more than a luxury care home. We're creating a warm, welcoming community where residents can continue to live with dignity, choice and purpose.

This is a unique opportunity to help shape the culture and standards of a brand-new home from day one.

We're looking for caring professionals who lead by example, inspire confidence in others and understand that exceptional care is built on kindness, respect and genuine human connection.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Care Assistant, you'll be a pivotal member of our care team.

You'll provide outstanding person-centred care while supporting colleagues, guiding new team members and helping ensure every resident receives the highest standard of care and support.

You'll be someone residents trust, families rely upon and colleagues look to for guidance and reassurance.

Whether you're supporting a resident through their daily routine, mentoring a new colleague or ensuring care plans are accurately updated, your contribution will make a meaningful difference every day.

What You'll Be Doing

Deliver Exceptional Care

Support residents with all aspects of daily living, ensuring their dignity, independence and individuality remain at the centre of everything you do.

Lead by Example

Provide guidance, support and encouragement to Care Assistants and new team members, helping to create a positive and professional culture.

Champion Person-Centred Care

Work closely with residents, relatives and colleagues to ensure care is tailored to individual needs, preferences and choices.

Support Care Planning

Monitor resident wellbeing, contribute to care plans and maintain accurate records that reflect each resident's changing needs.

Promote Resident Wellbeing

Encourage participation in activities, hobbies and social opportunities that enrich daily life and promote independence.

Build Meaningful Relationships

Develop trusting relationships with residents and their families, offering reassurance, compassion and support.

Medication Support

Where appropriate and trained to do so, safely administer medication and maintain accurate records in line with company procedures.

Ensure a Safe Environment

Promote good practice in health and safety, safeguarding, infection prevention and risk management throughout the home.

Support Residents at Every Stage of Their Journey

Provide compassionate support to residents and families during both joyful and challenging times, always ensuring dignity, comfort and respect.

About You

You'll combine professional experience with genuine compassion and a desire to help others thrive.

You'll ideally have:

• Previous experience within a residential, nursing or dementia care environment.

• Experience supporting or mentoring care staff.

• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.

• A good understanding of person-centred care.

• The ability to remain calm, organised and professional under pressure.

• A genuine passion for delivering outstanding care.
