Care Coordinator – Full Time
Location: Oxford Salary: £25,000 – £27,000 (depending on experience) Contract: Permanent | Full-Time
Some roles organise rotas. This one helps shape people’s lives.
We’re looking for an experienced, compassionate Care Coordinator to join a growing home care service in Oxford — someone who understands that great care starts behind the scenes, with thoughtful planning, strong relationships, and genuine attention to detail.
This is a role where your decisions don’t just fill hours — they ensure people receive the right care, at the right time, in the right way.
The Heart of the Role
As a Care Coordinator, you’ll be at the centre of everything — connecting clients, care staff, and the wider team to ensure care runs smoothly, safely, and with compassion.
You’ll play a key role in supporting people to remain in their own homes, maintaining independence and quality of life through well-planned, person-centred care.
This is a role for someone who takes pride in doing things properly — balancing organisation with empathy, and structure with flexibility.
What You’ll Be Doing
Your role will combine coordination, quality, and communication:
Care Planning & Quality
* Writing and updating personalised care plans
* Ensuring care is delivered in line with individual needs and preferences
* Carrying out supervisions and supporting compliance standards
* Monitoring quality and ensuring safe, consistent care delivery
Scheduling & Coordination
* Managing rotas and allocating care visits effectively
* Ensuring continuity of care for clients
* Managing staff availability and ensuring full coverage of care packages
Team Support
* Supporting and guiding Care Workers in their roles
* Acting as a point of contact for staff, clients, and families
* Helping build a positive, supportive working culture
Growth & Service Development
* Supporting the onboarding of new care packages
* Working across both local authority (council) and private clients
* Contributing to the growth and development of the service
On-Call Support
* Participating in an on-call rota outside of office hours
* Providing guidance and support to staff in the field
* Responding to urgent issues and ensuring continuity of care when it matters most
What Makes This Role Different
This isn’t just about filling shifts — it’s about creating a service that feels personal, reliable, and truly caring.
You’ll be part of a team that values:
* Independence and dignity for every client
* Consistent, relationship-led care
* Supporting people with a wide range of needs, including more complex care requirements
What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for someone who brings both experience and heart:
* Previous experience in a Care Coordinator or similar role
* Strong understanding of writing care plans and compliance processes (including supervisions)
* Experience managing rotas, staff, and high weekly care hours
* Good knowledge of the Oxford area and ability to plan care efficiently
* Understanding of service growth and onboarding new care packages
* Experience working with both council-funded and private clients
You’ll also be:
* Organised, calm, and solutions-focused
* A strong communicator who builds trust easily
* Passionate about delivering high-quality care
Why This Role Matters
Behind every well-run care service is someone who makes it all work — quietly ensuring that people are supported, staff feel valued, and care is delivered with consistency and kindness.
That person could be you.
If this feels like the kind of role you’ve been searching for — or if you know you could make a real difference by bringing structure, care, and compassion together — we’d love for you to apply and take that next step
