With supportive teams who all strive to be the “best of the best” and encourage individuals strengths to be utilised to allow personal growth and development, which complements the company’s aim to be so successful. Positive, inspiring and empowering.
I joined Safehands in May 2014 as an externally subcontracted bookkeeper. It very quickly became clear to me that I wanted to be part of the team on a permanent basis and was delighted to be offered a contract of employment as financial controller. The directors have immense drive and passion for the care industry which I find highly motivating. I look forward to achieving our future goals and watching the company continue to grow whilst feeling valued and cared for as a Safehands employee.
Safehands have been very accommodating with flexibility around my children, so much so that after 9 months I went full time. All the staff and directors have been so encouraging and supportive to enable me to further my career again. In the 18 months I have been here, I have seen the company grow and grow which is very motivating and I feel privileged to be part of a fast developing, caring company. I can’t wait to see what the future holds!

The journey so far has been truly fantastic- and I am excited for the future of Safehands and my career here.
