For access to the Proud to Care Cornwall website to submit company profile information and job vacancies and to receive direct communications from job seekers
Updated: September 2022

Cornwall Jobs Board

The jobs board is available for all eligible providers, partners and voluntary organisations in Cornwall to help promote adult care and support vacancies and career opportunities. It’s a free service but we ask you to commit to our Proud to Care Cornwall Acceptable Use Policy first.

Eligibility

  • The jobs board is for advertising vacancies within adult care and support organisations in Cornwall.
  • Jobs advertised are linked to a Company Profile on the website which should highlight the services within Cornwall.
  • Any role within an eligible organisation can be advertised and typical jobs roles could include care assistant, support worker, personal assistant, activities coordinator, assessor, team leader, registered manager, registered nurse, administrative roles, kitchen and domestic staff.
  • Roles can be paid or voluntary, work experience or apprenticeships.
  • The purpose of this platform is to assist employers with the direct recruitment of staff. For this reason, we do not accept adverts from Recruitment Agencies.

Candidates are able to contact you direct through the website either by applying for a vacancy advertised or through a contact form on the Company Profile webpage. Analytics will be collected to track visits to the website and the number of contacts made to employers.

All promotion activity of Proud to Care Cornwall will direct people to the website to search for vacancies. Your support in promoting the website will help enhance these campaigns and benefit all social care businesses in Cornwall.

You are encouraged to use the Proud to Care Cornwall logo on your own business websites and marketing material. To receive a copy of the logo for your use, please contact proudtocare@cornwall.gov.uk

Employer Hub

The Proud to Care Cornwall website will also include an Employer Hub, accessed via the website login which will provide a range of information and resources for adult social care employers/organisations.

The information on these pages will be updated on a regular basis.
