About The Role

HC-One, the kind care company is on the hunt for Britain’s kindest citizens to join its ‘caring army’. Whether you have been furloughed, lost your job due to coronavirus or are looking for a career change, join us to help support older people in your community.

In your role as a Laundry Assistant at HC One, Kindness will be at the core of everything you do. It touches upon every aspect of our Dementia, Nursing, Residential and Specialist care homes. Every single person who works here understands that our residents are people just like them with their own stories to tell. By joining HC-One, you’ll have a wonderful opportunity to give something back to those people.

As a Laundry Assistant that will mean maintaining a high standard of order/tidiness within the laundry area. Keeping our residents’ clothing looking and feeling great, you will be responsible for washing, drying, ironing and repairing items as needed. You will maintain linen stocks for day to day use and raise any issues to the Senior Housekeeper as you go. Safe, comfortable and welcoming, the environment you maintain will be testament to your brilliant eye for detail. And, whether you’re folding/separating of linen/clothes ready to be returned to rooms or re-distribution of clothing to correct rooms, you’ll do so with a sense of kindness above anything else. You will take real pride in ensuring your work is always completed to the highest standard. You will enjoy creating and environment that’s well maintained, making sure our residents lives are longer, happier and healthier.

At Barton Brook we currently have full time positions available, working 34 hours per week.

About You

Well, after all, it’s just in your nature.
