This is a community-based role where the Care Assistant will provide essential support to clients in their own homes, helping them maintain their independence and quality of life.
The role requires a Full UK Driving Licence and access to a reliable vehicle, as the Care Assistant will be traveling to clients’ homes across the region. Sponsorship is available for eligible candidates, offering an excellent opportunity for those seeking to start or advance their career in care.

About Bluebird
Driven by a vision that transcended conventional residential care, Paul and Lisa Tarsey established Bluebird Care in 2004. They sought to empower individuals to maintain their independence within their own homes, crafting a flexible, client-centric home care model founded on dignity and personalized support. From a single office in Petersfield, Hampshire, their compassionate and tailored services swiftly garnered acclaim.
Bluebird Care, offering everything from personal care and household assistance to companionship and specialized dementia support, redefined the standards of domiciliary care. This initial success prompted the development of a franchise system, allowing local offices to extend their high-quality care throughout the UK.
Currently, encompassing more than 220 independently managed franchise locations across the UK and Ireland, Bluebird Care has become a leading home care provider. Though each franchise operates autonomously, they are all bound by the core Bluebird Care principle: to deliver exceptional, person-centered care that addresses the unique requirements of each individual they serve.
