Kelli – Development Manager (Multi-office) “Blossom’s far better than other companies I’ve worked at. The longer calls mean carers get the time they need and the other thing is the higher level of management support – they want you to succeed. I’ve moved up through the business, they help you – there’s a positive attitude and approach." Darren – Deputy Manager (North) “I started as a senior and I’m now a Deputy Manager. What first attracted me was the call times – you don’t just get paid the contact time, carers get paid for the call and travel and mileage. And the minimum 50 minutes is way better. It gives the time to build relationship with the clients, some of them have no other visitors in the day and the contact we have is vital to their wellbeing.” Paige – Registered Manager (North East) “I started back in 2018 as a carer, worked up to senior carer, then admin, next deputy manager and now RM. It’s better than other care businesses I’ve worked at before, we pay a full 50-minute visit, not by the minute, and you’ve got time to speak to clients, provide that companionship and socialise, not just do the care tasks.” Applications: To apply to work at Blossom Home Care you will need to: - Supply the contact details of at least one previous employer for a reference - Be willing to undergo a CQC level DBS check - Provide full right to work documentation (if required) Summary: Job Types: Full-time, Permanent, 40hrs per week and to the safe running of the service Salary: £38,000 - £42,000 Schedule: Office hours (and to the safe running of the service) + on-call rota Experience: At least 1 years care and management/coordination experience – full training and 24/7 guidance and support provided Licence/Certification: DBS certificate Job Types: Full-time, Permanent Salary: £38,000.00-£42,000.00 per year Job Types: Permanent, Full-time Salary: £38,000.00-£42,000.00 per year Benefits: Company events Company pension On-site parking Schedule: Monday to Friday Weekend availability Licence/Certification: Driving Licence (required) Work Location: In person
