Are you looking for rewarding live-in care work with consistent 2-3 week placements across the South West?

Applicants must already hold a valid Right to Work in the UK at the time of application.

Join Consultus Care & Nursing and provide exceptional, person-centred care to clients in their own homes. With over 60 years of experience and a CQC 'Good' rating, we're a family-led company dedicated to supporting both our clients and our carers.

As one of the UK's longest-established live-in care providers, we are proud of our reputation for delivering high-quality live-in care that enables clients to remain safely and comfortably at home.

We are currently recruiting live-in carers for ongoing placements supporting multiple clients across the region.

This is a live-in role requiring carers to stay in a client's home for placements typically lasting 2-4 weeks at a time before taking a break. Applicants must be comfortable with the live-in nature of this role.

All new carers attend a comprehensive 1-week induction programme at our award-winning training centre in Tonbridge (accommodation provided).

This is not a fixed-location role. Carers must be prepared to work across multiple counties depending on client needs. While preferences can be noted, flexibility is essential as you will support different clients in different areas.
