As a Housekeeping Assistant at HC-One, kindness will be at the heart of everything you do. It’s what shapes our care across Dementia, Nursing, Residential, and Specialist homes. Our Residents are people with rich lives and personal stories. By joining HC-One, you’ll help give something back — through care, respect, and attention to detail.
Responsibilities
You’ll help create a clean, safe, and welcoming home. Your work will make a real difference every day. Key responsibilities include:
Some housekeeping experience is helpful, but full training is provided. You’ll need to be organised, manage your time well, and work with attention to detail. Most of all, you’ll bring a positive attitude and be kind and respectful in every conversation — with Residents, visitors, and your team.

All colleagues are required to attend safeguarding training appropriate to their role and to undertake additional training in associated areas. You also have the ability to seek appropriate advice and report concerns, including escalation if action is not taken.
