Job Description

Join Our Caring Team at ND Care & Support – Bridgend

Are you passionate about making a real difference in people’s lives? At ND Care & Support, we’re looking for compassionate and committed individuals in the Bridgend area to help people live independently, comfortably, and with dignity in their own homes.

Whether you’re already experienced in care or seeking a more meaningful and rewarding career, we’re here to support your journey every step of the way.

As a proud, registered provider with Care Inspectorate Wales (CIW), we’re known for delivering outstanding care – thanks to our incredible team of Carers. Join us and become part of a supportive, professional, and truly rewarding environment where your dedication is valued every day.

Make a difference. Be the difference. Join ND Care & Support!

About The Role:

  • Personal Care: Assisting clients with everyday tasks like bathing, dressing, and grooming.
  • Medication Assistance: Helping clients manage their medication as needed.
  • Food Preparation: Supporting clients with meal preparation to ensure they’re eating healthily.
  • Light Domestic Tasks: Helping with cleaning, laundry, and tidying up around the home.
  • Companionship & Emotional Support: Offering a caring presence to make clients feel valued and supported.
  • Driving Between Clients: A full UK Driving license or an international driving license and your own car are required.

Commitment to a Two-Week Roster:

As part of our dedicated care team, you’ll follow a structured two-week rota, offering stability for both you and those you support. This consistent schedule helps promote a healthy work-life balance while allowing you to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
Please note: This rota includes working every other weekend, ensuring fair and manageable coverage across the team.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive Pay: £14.12 per hour on weekdays, £14.68 per hour on weekends (please note, this rate includes your rolled-up holiday pay).
  • Flexible Hours: Choose from full-time or part-time positions that suit your schedule, offering the perfect balance between work and life.
  • Mileage & Travel Pay: Get reimbursed for travel expenses, including 25p per mile, so you’re compensated for being on the road. Paid waiting time up to 29 minutes (at national minimum wage).
  • Additional Costs: We’ll cover the cost of your Enhanced DBS check, and Social Care Wales registration fee, and even provide a Blue Light Card—saving you over £70!
  • Paid Full Visits: We value your time, which is why we ensure you’re paid for the entire duration of each visit, not just the care time.
  • Free PPE & Uniforms: We’ve got you covered with free uniforms and PPE for your safety and comfort.
  • Comprehensive Training & Ongoing Support: We provide full induction training and ongoing support to ensure you feel fully prepared in your role. (Paid at national minimum wage during your 5-day induction and after 100 hours worked.)

Above all, we are looking for compassionate, kind-hearted people, who are dependable and always prepared to go that extra mile. If this is you, then we can’t wait to hear from you.

What ND Care & Support offers:

  • Regular work
  • Flexible shift patterns
