Care and support jobs in the UK: what to check
Compare care assistant and support worker jobs by duties, location, shifts, travel and advertised salary.
Choose the setting
Search care assistant, support worker or healthcare assistant. Read duties and workplace details. Search cleaning or domestic roles separately when that is the work you want.
Check the whole working day
Record shifts, nights, weekends, travel between workplaces and any driving requirement. Check the advert’s training, experience and qualification requirements.
Compare pay and sponsorship evidence
Keep the advertised salary unit and check full-time equivalent or pro rata wording. Missing pay remains unknown. A care title or employer name does not confirm sponsorship for that vacancy; check the original advert and recruiting team.
