Company Description

✨ Your kindness could be the best part of someone’s day.

Helping someone get ready for the morning. Sharing a laugh over a cup of tea. Supporting a person to enjoy their favourite activity or feel confident at home.

At Sage Care, these everyday moments matter.

We’re looking for friendly, dependable Community Support Workers to join our growing Ealing branch team, supporting people across West London to live safely, comfortably and independently in their own homes.

If you enjoy meeting people, listening to their stories and lending a helping hand, you could bring something special to our team.

You’ll provide personal care, practical help and companionship — building relationships while helping people maintain their choices, routines and independence.

🏡 What is homecare?

Homecare means visiting people in their own homes and providing support tailored to their individual needs.

For one person, that might mean help getting washed and dressed. For another, it could be preparing lunch, supporting medication or helping them get out into the community.

You’ll follow each person’s care plan, encouraging them to do what they can for themselves and offering support where it’s needed.

• Maida Vale and Kilburn — W9 / NW6

• West Brompton and Chelsea — SW10
• Belgravia and surrounding Westminster neighbourhoods — SW1W / SW1X

We aim to match you with clients close to home wherever possible, helping you build meaningful relationships within your local community.

No driving licence or vehicle required. You’ll need to be comfortable travelling between clients’ homes, and your travel time between visits is paid.

We aim to match colleagues with clients in their local area wherever possible.

You don’t need to drive or own a vehicle. You will need to be comfortable travelling between clients’ homes throughout your working day.
