Care Assistant
About The Position
Become a Hero in Your Community. Join Cera as a community carer in Banff. Join our mission in Scotland to help our clients live independently in the comfort of their own homes. Whether you have experience as a care assistant or are brand new to the sector, we can offer you the perfect role as a carer. No experience is required - just a big heart and a desire to help others. The Role: Supporting clients in Banff, Portsoy and surrounding areas, this is a community-based role, where you will assist with personal care, medication, and meals, visiting people in their own homes and travelling between client visits. For this role, a driving licence and access to a vehicle is required. Your role is powered by Cera Tech - our predictive technology that reduces admin and helps prevent hospitalisations, so you can focus on caring. With flexible shifts available across mornings, days, evenings and nights, plus every other weekend off, we aim to support a positive work life balance. Registration: In Scotland, all care staff register with the SSSC. You must maintain registration and work towards your SVQ2 (funded by Cera; SVQ registration fee payable by employee).
