Your Schedule.
Your Rules.
At MoralCare, you choose your shifts, your hours, and your pattern — and we stick to it. No zero-hour contracts. No last-minute rota surprises. Just real stability, real respect, and a team that actually values your time.
The Role
This is not just a job. It is a vocation.
You will support people aged 65 and over to stay safe, comfortable and independent in their own homes. Every day is different. Every person is different. And the impact you have is real - you are not just filling a shift, you are genuinely improving someone's life.
We will be honest with you: this role is not for everyone. It is demanding, it requires you to think on your feet, and the people you care for are often vulnerable. But if you have the right values, we will give you everything you need to be brilliant at it.
What you'll do day to day
We need you to be honest with yourself
Sometimes a client might be on the floor. You need to be the calm, reassuring presence that takes control, keeps them safe and gets help quickly. This role requires excellent time-keeping, clear communication and the ability to act decisively when it matters.
We are not looking for perfection - we are looking for people with the right heart, the right attitude and the willingness to grow. If that sounds like you, we will do the rest.
What we need from you
A full driving licence and your own vehicle
Essential - our clients are spread across Morecambe and surrounding areas.
A caring, reliable and respectful approach
You will be in people's homes. Dignity and trust are non-negotiable.
Excellent time-keeping
Rotas are built around client visit windows. Being late affects real people.
Clear communication
You must be able to flag concerns to the office promptly and accurately.
A willingness to learn
Experience is great, but not essential. The right attitude is everything.

Mileage paid at 25p per mile - calculated on actual routes, not "as the crow flies"
Most clients are within a short radius of Morecambe. Real travel time between visits is paid.
Holiday pay is separate
Many care companies roll holiday pay into your hourly rate and call it 'inclusive'. We don't. Your rate is your rate. Annual leave is paid on top.
DBS reimbursed
Your enhanced DBS check cost is reimbursed in your first wage. You shouldn't have to pay to start a job.
Qualifications funded
We fund your Level 2 Health and Social Care qualification if you don't already have one. As you progress, we fund Level 3, specialist certifications and leadership qualifications too. Your development is our investment - not your expense.
Your Schedule
Your life. Your rota.
Tell us what works for you - childcare, hobbies, family commitments, whatever matters. We build your rota around it. Your pattern repeats on a 2-week rotation, so you always know what you are working. No surprises. No last-minute calls. No stress.
7am - 2pm
Morning shift
Approx. 6 hours
Finished by 2pm - the whole afternoon is yours
Shops are still open, appointments are easy to book
Pick the kids up from school with time to spare
Enjoy your evenings fully - dinner, hobbies, family time
2pm - 9pm
Afternoon shift
Approx. 6 hours
Have a proper lie-in - no alarm at 6am
Do the school run, hit the gym or run errands first
Shops are still open when you start - grab what you need
Perfect if mornings are for childcare or college
7am - 9pm
Full day
Approx. 12 hours
Pack all your hours into fewer days
More full days off to do what you love
Great if you want a 3 or 4 day working week
Build deeper relationships with the people you support
Even better? Mix them up.
An early shift followed by a late shift the next day means you finish at 2pm one day and don't start again until 2pm the next. That's a full 24 hours off in between - without even using a day off.
Or throw in a full day and pack 12 hours into one shift. That means more complete days off during the week to spend however you like.
We encourage a mix of shift types rather than all the same. It helps us match you with more service users - and it gives you the best work-life balance.
Weekend commitment: A minimum of 4 weekend shifts per fortnight is required (any mix of Saturdays and Sundays). We are honest about this upfront because it matters to us that you can genuinely commit.
Why MoralCare
Unlike other care jobs...
Predictable rotas - forever
Your rota is so consistent you will know what you are working this time next year. No last-minute changes, no uncertainty.
Contracted hours - guaranteed income
Sleep at night knowing your bills are covered. No zero-hour uncertainty. Your contracted hours are yours.
Fair Christmas - everyone shares it
We don't leave one person to sacrifice their entire Christmas. All staff come in for a couple of hours so no one carries the full load alone.
Shift cover group
Life happens. We have a shift cover group so you can swap shifts with colleagues when something comes up.
Pool car for emergencies
If your car breaks down or is in the garage, we have a pool car so you don't lose hours or income. No other local provider does this.

The best job I have had!
“I have worked with MoralCare for almost a year now and I say 'with' and not 'for' purely due to the level of support and teamwork I've received from management and other colleagues. Management are truly great, prioritising not just the needs of the service users but our wellbeing as carers too. I truly feel valued as a carer and whenever I've raised a concern it's been dealt with.”

The Management are Unbelievable - very supportive
“I have worked in care for 30 years and I must say Moral Care is the best company I have ever worked for. The Management are Unbelievable - very supportive, value and care for their staff. I only wish I had taken this direction a long time ago.”

Job satisfaction at its best
“I love working for Moral Care. The management used to be carers and still often work out in the community which is nice. The company really is a breath of fresh air. I have done community care work for over 20 years and this one is by far the best. Well done Moral Care, a business with Morals!”
