Care Assistant & Companion - Guildford & Godalming - Full Time
We exist to allow families the option of providing care for their loved ones in the comfort of their home.
£15.00–£17.00 per hour | 45p mileage | Full-time | Guaranteed hours available
Could you be the reason someone looks forward to their day?
You don't need years of experience in care to make a difference to someone's life. Sometimes it's about being there, listening, sharing a laugh or helping someone feel less alone.
At Guardian Angel Carers, we're looking for genuinely caring, friendly and reliable people to support clients in their own homes across Guildford, Godalming and the surrounding villages.
Perhaps you've worked in care before, or maybe you've spent years looking after your family, helping a neighbour or working with people and are now looking for something more rewarding.
If you're someone who enjoys helping others, we'd love to hear from you.
What does the role involve?
It's about much more than completing a list of tasks. It's about getting to know the people you support and helping them continue living independently in their own homes.
Your day could include:
Providing companionship, conversation and reassurance
Helping someone get out for a coffee, a walk or to do their shopping
Preparing meals and supporting with everyday routines
Helping clients remain independent and confident at home
Providing personal care when needed, with full training and support
What can you expect from us?
Competitive salary
45p per mile mileage allowance
Full-time and part-time positions
Guaranteed hours available
Full training provided – previous care experience isn't essential
A friendly, supportive local office team
Opportunities to develop and progress within the company
Meaningful work where you can see the difference you make
Who are we looking for?
We're not just looking at qualifications or how many years you've worked in care.
We're looking for people who are naturally kind, patient, reliable and who genuinely enjoy spending time with others.
You'll need to be someone our clients can depend on, who takes pride in their work and understands how important those daily visits can be.
What do you need to have?
A full driving licence and access to your own car
The right to work in the UK without employer visa sponsorship
A willingness to provide personal care when required
Availability to work agreed shifts, including some evenings or weekends where needed
A job that means something
For some of our clients, you might be the person they look forward to seeing most that day.
That's why we believe the right attitude, kindness and reliability matter just as much as previous experience.
If you're looking for a job where you're valued and where you can genuinely make a difference, we'd love you to join us.
Apply today to join Guardian Angel Carers.
Please note: We are unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role.
