Service manager of WCS Care Tammy Hulley said: “We’re looking for experienced team members who always put residents first and are committed to delivering the highest quality of care.

“If an applicant’s personal qualities shine through, they’re a great communicator, energetic, can work hard under pressure, and can be understanding and empathetic towards others, we’d like to hear from them.”

Christine Asbury, Chief Executive at WCS Care, said: “At WCS Care, residents are in charge of their life and we’re here to support them with high quality care 24 hours a day, seven days a week – ultimately, we want to ensure that every day is a day well lived.

“Our values are fundamental to helping us achieve this - so if joining an organisation where you can play, make someone’s day, be there and choose your attitude sounds appealing, you’ll fit right in.”
