All applications are made via our candidate application portal where you will need to upload your cv or provide details of your previous employment history.

All British and EU passport holders are currently able to work in the UK without restrictions providing you were resident within the United Kingdom by a certain date.  For more information please visit gov.uk website.

If you are applying from outside these countries you will require a work permit.

For candidates without six months’ previous experience, we have a training programme called ONBOARD. The programme includes up to 5 days bespoke pre-employment training, shadowing some of our experienced Support Workers and completion of the Care Certificate.  Once you have completed these steps, you will be providing care to our lovely clients in their own homes.

To work with us at Midian Care, you will need a fully enhanced DBS Certificate.  If you registered for the update service (online DBS) you will need to provide us with a copy of the original certificate.

An existing DBS certificate that has not been registered for the Update Service is non-transferrable between companies and therefore, we will need to apply for a new one on your behalf. The cost of your DBS is £55.60 (£40 plus £15.60 administration fee) which is payable by cash, credit card or bank transfer on the day of your DBS appointment.

The DBS fee is refundable one you have completed 3 months of work for Midian Care.

Documents required to check your eligibility to work in the UK and complete your DBS application are:

• Passport, National ID or British Birth Certificate (issued within 12 months of date of birth)
• Valid visa (if applicable), if an overseas student you will also need to supply a letter from your place of study to verify your status.
• 2 x forms of proof of your current address (not older than 3 months)
• UK Driving licence and your vehicle insurance (if you are a driver)
• 1 x passport photograph
• Your National Insurance Number (issued on NIN card, P45 or P60)
• Original P45 from you previous employer
• Addresses history for the past 5 years

If you have obtained an Enhanced DBS by subscribing to the DBS Update Service, you will need to provide us with your original certificate. This updated DBS must be fully enhanced to work with for both adults and children. Other paper DBS certificates are company specific and therefore will not be accepted.

All criminal convictions must be declared during the application process. If you have committed an offence your suitability to work with us will be evaluated against the type of offence, whether it is ‘spent’ or ‘unspent’, when it was committed and after a conversation with yourself, the final decision will be made by our HR Manager.

If this is your first employment in the UK, it will also be necessary for you to obtain either a criminal records check or ‘Certificates of Good Character; from the country where you have lived for 12 months or more (whether continuously or in total) in the last 10 years, while aged 18 or over. Our HR team will guide you through this process.
