Job description

Make 2026 Your Career Year: Lead with Compassion. Grow with Purpose.

Are you an experienced care professional with a background in leadership? Ready to start the new year with purpose?

At CareRight, we’re looking for a Senior Care Supervisor to lead, inspire, and support a dedicated team of carers delivering truly person-centred care across Plymouth and the surrounding areas.

This is more than a supervisory role, it’s your chance to shape the future of our growing homecare service, mentor a passionate team, and set the standard for compassionate, high-quality care in the community. Make 2026 the year you take your career forward.

The Role

As a Senior Care Supervisor, you’ll manage a small care team (or “pod”), combining hands-on care with supervisory and leadership responsibilities.

Working closely with clients, families, health professionals, and the wider CareRight team, you’ll ensure consistent care quality, regulatory compliance, and a positive, supported working environment for your carers.

You’ll play a key role in:

• Leading and mentoring a team
• Supporting the out-of-hours service through participation in the on-call rota
• Completing care plan assessments and regular reviews
• Leading shadow shifts for new carers and carrying out care observations
• Monitoring compliance and updating care management software
• Liaising with healthcare professionals and client families to ensure continuity of care

What We’re Looking For

• Proven leadership experience within a care setting
• NVQ Level 3 in Health & Social Care (or equivalent)
• Strong leadership, organisational, and communication skills
• A compassionate, client-focused approach
• Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel across Plymouth and nearby areas
• Flexibility to provide guidance and support when required

What We Offer

• Competitive salary: Up to £32,000 per year, plus overtime and bonus opportunities
• 28 days paid holiday
• Company car (as agreed), mobile phone, laptop, and uniform
• Paid travel time and mileage allowance
• Employee incentives, team events, and clear career progression pathways
• A structured 40-hour workweek, balanced between leadership duties and care delivery

Why Join CareRight in 2026?

We’re not just a care provider, we’re a team with a clear mission: to raise the standard of homecare. As we expand our services across Plymouth and surrounding communities, this role offers real development opportunities and the chance to make a meaningful difference every single day.

If you’re ready to lead with empathy, drive quality, and grow with a forward-thinking organisation, 2026 could be your year to shine.
