Jobs available with social care group

A social care charity is looking to recruit additional staff in North Lanarkshire.

Quarriers has welcomed a positive response to its recruitment drive with more than 450 applications.

The charity urgently needs staff and volunteers who can provide vital services for some of society’s most vulnerable people.

The need for immediate recruitment has increased as the coronavirus continues to cause challenging circumstances for both existing Quarriers staff and volunteers, and those they support.

A number of positions are still available in key areas and the organisation is continuing to recruit for roles in North Lanarkshire – these are only for women due to the nature of the work involved.

The positive response to the recruitment campaign has resulted in the initial applicants now beginning to take up their new roles.

Dr Ron Culley, chief executive officer with Quarriers, said:“This is a very difficult and challenging time for everyone and the social care sector has a very important role to play in providing much-needed support to some of society’s most vulnerable.

“We are indebted to all our staff and volunteers for their hard work in continuing to provide such a high level of service but we are still recruiting to boost our staff numbers and looking forward to additional staff joining our committed team.”
