Full or part time hours are available.
Are you looking for a Housekeeping Assistant/Domestic role that makes a real difference?

Do you pride yourself with creating and maintaining a clean, relaxing, homely environment for others?

Yes? Here is what makes Care UK different.

Care UK is one of the largest care providers in the UK with over 120 homes.

Residents are at the heart of everything we do and so we are offering Cleaners and Housekeeping Assistants the opportunity to make a difference to our resident's lives whilst undertaking a very important role.

This is a chance to work for an industry leader with a holistic and person centred approach to care, and working as part of a close team there is real opportunity to grow and develop your career.


Led by the Head Housekeeper, you'll be responsible for carrying out all cleaning duties including communal areas, resident's rooms and en-suites.

You'll make sure on a daily basis that deep cleaning tasks are carried out to a high standard, complying with infection control guidelines.

It's important that you respect the privacy and individual needs of the residents. You'll also need to be comfortable doing some paperwork and re-stocking cleaning supplies as required. It's a rewarding role and a supportive workplace where we all pull together.


You may or may not have worked in a care home before but it is important to us that you are a caring, positive person with a strong attention to detail whilst taking pride in ensuring a clean and welcoming environment for our residents as well as families and visitors.

We value our colleagues, rewarding them with a great benefits package.

This includes, but is not limited to; competitive hourly rates with paid overtime, bank holiday enhancements, free uniform, childcare vouchers, cycle to work scheme, a wide range of retail discounts and access to a calendar of free training to help enhance your skills.


At Cheviot Court we offer high quality care together with a warm welcome in a lovely setting.
Cheviot Court care home in South Shields offers high quality, personalised residential and respite care for older people. Our team has specialist expertise in supporting individuals with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia.

Our number one goal is to make sure each resident is happy and fulfilled every day.

We spend time getting to know residents, developing friendships with them and learning about how they like to spend their time.

We do all we can to make residents feel completely comfortable and at home.


Residents and visitors enjoy relaxing in our large, landscaped garden, with its mature trees, flower beds, patio with seating area and well-kept lawns.

The keen gardeners here help to keep everything looking lovely.


We provide a wide range of stimulating activities for residents and are always willing to organise new activities that residents suggest to us.
