We’re looking for a dedicated individual with experience in administrative tasks, or a willingness to learn. The ideal candidate must be methodical as we provide and maintain lifesaving equipment to vulnerable people in their homes. At Forestcare, we’re there when people need a helping hand to live independently, supporting them during their most challenging moments. Be part of a team that makes a real difference in people's lives when it matters most.
We need someone who can keep calm under pressure whilst providing impeccable customer service. A polite, caring, empathetic nature is essential. We are looking for someone who will go the extra mile to ensure that we have satisfied service users.
An understanding of IT systems and Microsoft Office suite is essential as Forestcare utilises assistive technology to meet the needs of clients.
The team consists of several different roles’, but everybody works together to provide a very effective and professional service. The control centre operates 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Being an assistive technology control centre, the work environment can be variable. One moment it can be quiet and relaxed, the next, noisy, and busy! This ensures that every day is rewarding but very rarely the same!
Interviews will be held on 10th and 11th October 2024.
Interviews will be conducted in person, providing candidates with the chance to personally meet the team and experience our work environment.
We will be reviewing applications regularly and reserve the right to close the advert early if suitable candidates are identified. To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible.
