The successful candidate will:
- Share First City values
- Be naturally passionate about caring
- Promote and encourage independence
- Support our customer's learning experiences at home

'I love the job I do, it gives me so much joy and pleasure. I like to help people enhance their lives and keep them as independent as possible. And also, I think it's of great importance to make the people you look after feel that they matter.'
