We’re all about reablement that really matters - encouraging people to achieve their best in their own homes and communities. Do you like working alongside people so they discover their own strengths? Can you set people up for living as independently as they can?

We’re keen to hear from you if you:

Enjoy a challenge

Understand what it means to treat people with dignity and respect

Can place a person at the centre of their care

Can be creative and are forward thinking

The post holder will be required to work on a rota system, which will include days, unsocial hours, weekends, nights, and bank holidays. There may be a requirement, on occasion, to work flexibly to attend mandatory training, meetings or cover unplanned absences.

Working in care can be challenging at times, but extremely rewarding, and as an employee of Derbyshire County Council, you will receive a competitive benefits package including:

25 days of annual leave plus another 5 once you reach 5 years of continuous service (pro rata for part time)

Generous local government pension scheme

Guaranteed incremental annual pay increases

Cycle to work scheme

Discounts at selected county leisure centres
