  • Coordinate staff files, training records, DBS checks, and compliance documents
  • Monitor emails, handle inbound enquiries, and keep client records up to date
  • Support the onboarding of new care workers and health professionals
  • Assist in rota scheduling, timesheet logging, and payroll preparation
  • Track KPIs, update logs, and maintain our internal SharePoint/CRM systems
  • Respond professionally to client queries, complaints, or requests
  • Provide ad-hoc support with marketing, invoicing, policies, or events
  • Help maintain excellent CQC readiness, audit trails, and quality standards
