Are you looking for more than just a job – something truly meaningful?

Whether you’re starting fresh or looking to take the next step in your care career, you can accelerate your career with Angel Carers, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. With over 30 years’ experience as a leading home care service, it has shown us that previous experience simply isn’t necessary to become a brilliant carer. We value people who are empathetic, understanding, compassionate and want to enrich the lives of our customers. At Angel Carers, we don’t just provide care – we change lives! And now, we’re looking for kind-hearted individuals to join our passionate team delivering home care across Bridport and the surrounding villages.

What is a Domiciliary Carer?

A Domiciliary Carer, also known as a Domiciliary Care Worker, is a professional who supports individuals in maintaining their independence by providing care in their own homes. This can be through regular daily visits. The role includes assisting with personal care, medication, household tasks, and long-term care needs. It’s also about promoting a good quality of life by supporting clients with everyday activities and encouraging meaningful social interaction and community involvement.

At Angel Carers, we ensure our carers are fully trained to support clients in a variety of ways – from helping with bathing and personal hygiene to accompanying them to appointments, assisting with daily chores, and even joining them on outings. As a Domiciliary Carer, you’ll have the opportunity to form strong, supportive relationships with clients while also benefiting from flexible working patterns that give you time for yourself.

Be Part of Something Bigger

At Angel Carers, we’re proud to be rated ‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission, and we’re even prouder of the compassionate team behind that success.

Our team isn’t just made up of care workers – they’re Angel Carers. They’re people like you: kind, dedicated, and driven to make life better for others.
