Who Can Register with Snap Care?
Our clients and families need people who are professional, reliable, organised, punctual, proactive, honest, self-starting, and hardworking.
Our roles suit people who are empathetic, caring, supportive, patient, resilient, creative, dedicated, and motivated to make a real difference.
You are likely to be working in someone's home and understand the requirements around this; your workplace is also their home.
Most importantly, you must really want to do this type of work and to want to make a difference; it is one of the most rewarding jobs you can do, but it isn't the easiest option.
Right to Work
We require candidates to have the right to work in the UK; as an introductory agency, unfortunately, we are unable to assist with sponsorship.
Similarly, we are not able to accept applications from candidates on a Skilled Worker Visa which is tied to a sponsored job.
Experience
All our jobs require a level of experience; this will differ from job to job. Your experience may be professional or more personal, such as having a sibling with a disability. Experience supporting a child or adult on a 1:1 basis, within a private home, is desirable for most of our jobs.
We generally require at least 12 months’ relevant experience. UK-based experience is preferred because we must be able to verify references, though we will consider overseas experience where references or documentation can reliably be confirmed.
Some roles do not require prior experience and include full training; these will be clearly identified in the job description.
For candidates with less than 12 months' UK experience, we (or our clients), may require additional information to verify your previous employment, training, education and/or identification.
Documentation and References
You will need to be able to supply documentation to prove your right to work in the UK, identity, and relevant qualifications. We will need full contact details of at least 2 professional references.
Enhanced DBS Police Check
We will require a satisfactory DBS Police Check which is registered on the DBS Update Service if we successfully place you. We can process a DBS for you (fast-tracked) if you don’t have one. We will pay for this for you if we successfully place you, plus the first year of the Update Service. Read more information on DBS Police Checks here.
Professional CV
You will need to provide a professional CV. We can help you create this using our CV tips and template.
